Intro:  G C G C

Verse 1:  
             G                        
Oh well I’ve made a small fortune selling used cars
        C
And its buried out back in a cookie jar
  Em
I raise a toast to senior escabar 
    C                  D
For giving me a pot to piss in


Well I ran a little scam until ninety two
Now I’m hanging round here for something to do
I just keep talking till I’m blue
To anyone who’ll listen

Chorus:
          Em      D     C
Yes we’re lost in America
         Em         D        C
And this land we’re so proud of
              Em                  D                     
We’ve got the cars, the girls, the money, 
             C                   A
the drugs to get you out of your rut
          C       D       G
Yes we’re lost in America

Verse 2:

She got a brand new lease on an Escalade
And a bumper sticker about a whale to save
And she burning up gas like they gave it away
At least her kid’s on the honor roll

She got a handful of pills to improve her mood
Liposuction,  big fake boobs
Got a Mexican maid that brings the food
The birdcage made of gold

Chorus

Bridge:

Am           D
I’m dropping out
    Am                D
And I’m quitting this game
         C               G/B                  Em                G/Bb
Yes I’m washing my feet, I turn off my phone, changing my name, Hitting the road
C                 G/B                  C                              D
Don’t really know where I’m gonna go, but I’m getting the hell out of here
