The Last American

C
I’m the last American
C
On this earth
C
I’d like to quit this talking
   Em
Get back to work
Am
You don’t understand me
That’s cause we are not the same
G
You may recognize me
But you don’t know my name

         Am
I got my old man’s heart
      G          C
And a broke down Chevrolet

C
I took this job
C
Cause they need the hands
I got mouths to feed
     Em
And I’m a man
Am
You can have anything you want
This is the land of the free
G
I got everything I asked for
On the day I turned sixteen

         Am
I got my old man’s heart
      G          C
And a broke down Chevrolet

Em            Am
Oh, you can’t take it any longer
Em             Am
Oh, what don’t kill you
Makes you jump into your car and drive away
       C                                 G
If you ever wonder what makes some men stay

         Am
I got my old man’s heart
      G          C
And a broke down Chevrolet

C
See I was born
C
On the edge of town
You wouldn’t know it
          Em
There’s a school there now
             Am
They tell em you can be anything you want
And I believe that’s a fact
    G
But what you give away
You ain’t never getting back

          Am
I got my old man’s heart
      G          C
And a broke down Chevrolet

C
Guess I’ll vote the ticket
Like i always do
If I can figure out
    Em
Who to stick it to
Am
You can keep asking your questions
If you think it’s going to help
   G
Do I believe in God
Mister you go straight to hell

         Am
I got my old man’s heart
      C          G
And a broke down Chevrolet
