We Called It America NOFX
Am C G D x 2
[Verse 1]
Remember when [Am]America had a [C]middle class and an upper [G]class?
That was way before the [D]exodus.
That was the [Am]America that we [C]thought was numb[Bm]er one,
[G]thought would overcome, [D]thought would never [Am]die.
That was just our [Am]pride and faith: two [C]sh*tty deadly sins;
I know [G]faith isn't one of 'em but it [D]should have been,
'Cause when things were [Am]crumbling, we had [C]no camarade[Bm]rie,
just a [G]faith someone would [D]save us from des[Am]pondence.
[Cborus]
We called it [Am]America, [C]whoa.[G] [F]
We called it [Am]America, [C]whoa.[D]
[Verse 2]
"Number one [Am]America" was a [C]slogan used
to keep [G]morale up when we knew we were al[D]ready cooked,
Then the richer [Am]western states
[C]succeeded in [Bm]secession and the [G]eastern ones [D]followed right be[Am]hind.
Mexi-Can-[Am]America was the [C]perfect name
that [G]epitomized the order of [D]significance, authority and [Am]affluence.
We had [C]turned it all [Bm]around, went from [G]number one,
[D]straight to number [Am]two (sh*t).
[Cborus]
We called it [Am]America, [C]whoa.[G] [F]

[Am]USA, [G]dined and ditched;
[F]Fox reports "[Em]poor is the new rich".
