Part 1 : C Chord
[C] Born into Nixon I [G]was raised in [F]hell
[C] A welfare child where the tea[G]msters dwell[F]ed
[C] The last one born and the [G]first one to run[F]
[C] My town was blind from r[G]efinery [F]sun
[Am] My generation is zero[F]
[Am] I never made it as a working cla[F]ss hero[G]
[C]21st c[G]entury break[F]down

Part 2: G chord
[G]We are the cries of the [C]class of '13
[G]Born in the year[C] of humility
[G]We are the desperate in the decline[C]
[G]Raised by the bastards of 1969
[C]My name is 'No one' your [F]long [G]lost [C]son
Born on the 4th of July
[C]Raised in the barnyards of heroes[F] and co[G]ns[C]
Left me for dead or alive
[C]There is a war that'[F]s ins[G]ide m[C]y head
That questions the results and lies
I'm break[C]ing my back till I'm better off [F]dead[G] [C]
We are not payed enough to survive
[C]I am an engine, a worke[F]r, a pa[G]wn[G]
My debt to the status quo
[C]The scars on my hands and a[F] mean[G]s to an[C] end
It's all that I have to show
[C]I'm taking a loan on [F]my s[G]a [C]ni ty
For the redemption of my soul
[C]WelI am exempt from this t[F]ra [G]ge [C]dy
And the 21st century fall
I pr[F]aise liber[G] ty[C], the fre[F]edom to o bey[G] [C]
It's a so[C]ng that strangles me[G] [C]
Well don't c[F]ross the line[C] [G]
F, C, G (repeat x3)

Oh, dre[C]am, American dr[Cb]eam[A]
I c[G]an't even sleep[F]
From rains[G#]torms till dawn[C]
Oh, ble[C]ed, America b[Cb]leed[A]
Belie[G]ve what you read[F]
From heroe[G#]s and cons
