	N.C.

	G	C	C/B
	It was the town that made America	famous

Am D G The churches full and the kids

gone to hell

	G
	Six traffic lights, and seven cops

	C	C	C/B
And	all the streets kept clea	n

	Am	D	C	G
	The supermarket and the d	rug store and the b	ars all doin' w	ell

	G	C	C/B
	Now they were the folks that made America	famous

	Am	C	D	G
Our	local fire depar	tment stocked with	short-haired volunt	eers

	G
	And on Saturday night, while America boozes

	C	C	C/B
The	fire department showed dirty	movies

	Am	C/B	Am	C/G	Am	C/G
The	lawyer and the grocer s	eein' t	heir	dreams come to life on th	e movie scr	een

	F	D	C
	While the plumber hopes that he	won't be seen, as he	tries to hide his fears

	G
And he wipes away his	tears

	Bb	A
But	somethin's burinin'	somewhere

	B	G
DOES	ANYBODY	CARE?

	G	C	C/B
	We were the kids that made America	famous

	Am	D	G
The	kind of kids that long since drove our	parents to	despair

	G
	We were lazy long-hairs droppin' out

	C	C	C/B
	Lost, confused, and coppin'	out

	Am	D
	Convinced our futures	were in doubt

	C	G
	And tryin' not to	care

	G	C	C/B
	We lived in the house that made America	famous

	Am	C	D	G
It was a	run-down slum, the	shame of all the	decent folks in	town

	G
	We're hippies and some welfare cases

	C	C	C/B
	Crowded families of	cold, black	faces

	Am	C/B	Am
	Cramped inside some cracked o	ld boar	ds

	C/G	Am	C/G
	The best that we all coul	d affor	d

	F	D	C
	But still too fine for the	rich landlord to ever	tear it down

	G
	And we could hear the sound

	Bb	A
Of	somethin' burnin'	somewhere

	B	G
IS A	NYBODY T	HERE?

	G	C	C/B
	We all lived the life that made America	famous

	Am	D	G
Our	cops would make a point to shadow	us around our	town

	G	C	C	C/B
	And we love children put a swastika on the	bright red firehouse	door

	Am	D	C	G
	America, the	beautiful, it	makes a body	proud

	G	C	C/B
	And then came the night that made America	famous

	Am	C	D	G
Was it	carelessness or	someone's sick	idea of a	joke?

	G	C	C	C/B
In the	tinder-box trap we hippies lived in	someone struck a	spark

	Am	C/B	Am
At	first I thought that I was	dreami	n'

	C/G	Am	C/G
	Then I saw the first flames	gleami	n'

	F	D
	And heard the sound of	children screamin'

	C	G
	Comin' through the	smoke

	Bb	A
And	somethin's burnin'	somewhere

	B	G
DOES	ANYBODY	CARE?

	G	C	C/B
	Oh, it was the fire that made America	famous

	Am	D	G
The	sirens wailed and the firemen stumbled	sleepin' from their	homes

	G
	And when the plumber yelled, "C'mon, let's go!"

	C	C	C/B
	They saw what was burnin' and said, "T	ake it	slow"

	Am
	"Let 'em sweat a little"

	D
	"They'll never know"

	C
	"And besides, we just cleaned the chrome"

N.C. G

Said the plumber, "Then I'm goin' alone"

	G
	Well he rolled on up in the fire truck

	Am
	And raised the ladder to the ledge

	C	C/B	Am	D
While	me and my girl and a	couple of kids were	clinging like bats to the	edge

	G
	We staggered to salvation

	C	C	C/B
	Collapsed on the stree	t

	Am	D
And	I never thought that a	fat man's face

	C	G
Would	ever look so	sweet

	G	C	C/B
	I shook his hand in the scene that made America	famous

	Am	D	G
And he	smiled from the heart that	made America	great

	G	C	C	C/B
We spent the	rest of that night in the home of this man that	we'd never known	befor	e

	Am	D	C	G
It's	funny; when you	get that close, it's	kind of hard to	hate

	G	C	C/B
	I went to sleep with the hope that made America	famous

	Am	C	D	G
I had the	kind of a dream that	maybe they're still	trying to teach in	school

	G	C	C/B
	O'  the America that made America	famous

	Am	C/B	Am
	And of the people who just might	underst	and

	C/G	Am	C/G
	That how together,	yes we	can

	F
	Create a country better than

	D
	The one we have made of this land

	F
	We have the choice

	F
	To make each man

	D
	Who dares to dream

	D
	Reachin' out his hand

	C	G
	A prophet or just a crazy damn dreamer or a	fraud
