[Intro]
|D    |Bm    |A    |G G/F# G G/F# G A D|
 
[Verse 1]
D              Bm
I woke up to a bitter storm
    G               D                A
And Noah's Ark came washed up on the shore
D                 Bm
The riot gear has lined the dawn
G                   D             A
Like dogs that shit on your neighbor's lawn
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F#                            Bm
Let freedom ring with all the crazies on parade
G                          A                    G  A
Let there be poison and it tastes like lemonade
 
[Chorus]
D             G                        D
Back in the USA, for a small town serenade
                      A
With fireworks on display
  Bm                             G
Tonight, it's the hero's welcome home
                             D
And there's no place else to go
                         A
And I'm takin' it to the grave
            G A D
Back in the U-S-A
 
[Instrumental]
|D    |Bm    |A    |G G/F# G G/F# G A D|
 
[Verse 2]
D                 Bm
The saddest story ever told
   G               D            A
Is feeling safe in the suburban homes
D                  Bm
The soldiers of an endless war
    G                D             A
And every church can have a liquor store
 
[Pre-Chorus]
F#                            Bm
Let freedom ring with all the crazies on parade
G                          A                    G  A
Let there be poison and it tastes like lemonade
 
[Chorus]
D             G                        D
Back in the USA, for a small town serenade
                      A
With fireworks on display
  Bm                             G
Tonight, it's the hero's welcome home
                             D
And there's no place else to go
                         A
And I'm takin' it to the grave
            G A D
Back in the U-S-A
 
[Outro]
|D    |Bm    |A    |G G/F# G G/F# G A D|
