Kids In America

F#
Looking out a dirty old window.
                                   E
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by.
  D         E          B
I sit here alone and I wonder why.

[Verse 2]

F#
Friday night and everyone's moving.
I can feel the heat but it's soothing.
E
Heading down,
  D              E            B
I search for the beat in this dirty town.

[Bridge 1]

B
Down town the young ones are going.
C#
Down town the young ones are growing.

[Chorus]

D                  A
We're the kids in America.
We're the kids in America.
D         E                     F#
Everybody live for the music-go-round.

[Verse 3]

F#
Bright ligths the music get faster.
                                          E
Look boy, don't check on your watch, not another glance.
    D           E          B
I'm not leaving now, honey not a chance.

[Verse 4]

F#
Hot-shot, give me no problems.
                                 E
Much later baby you'll be saying never mind.
    D            E              B
You know life is cruel, life is never kind.

B
Kind hearts don't make a new story.
C#
Kind hearts don't grab any glory.

[Chorus]

D                  A
We're the kids in America.
We're the kids in America.
D         E                     F#
Everybody live for the music-go-round.

[Instumental]

F#      A       E       D
F#      A       E       D       E

[Verse 5]

F#
Come closer, honey that's better.
Got to get a brand new experience.
E
Feeling right.
   D            E          B
Oh don't try to stop baby, hold me tight.

[Verse 6]

F#
Outside a new day is dawning.
                             E
Outside Suburbia's sprawling everywhere.
  D             E
I don't want to go baby.

[Bridge 3]

B
New York to East California.
C#
There's a new wave coming I warn you.

[Chorus]

D                  A
We're the kids in America.
We're the kids in America.
D         E                     F#
Everybody live for the music-go-round.
