Bm7 

Bm7                                              Eb7 
I'm going to a town that has already been burned down 

Abmaj7                                     Dbmaj7 
I'm going to a place that is already been disgraced 

Gm7/5-                                           C7 
I'm gonna see some folks who have already been let down. 

                Fm 
I'm so tired of America 

(Repeat for Verse 2) 
I'm gonna make it up for all of the Sunday Times 
I'm gonna make it up for all of the nursery rhymes 
They never really seem to want to tell the truth 
I'm so tired of you America 

====== 
Chorus 
====== 

          Bbm     Fm 
Making my own way home 

          Bbm     Fm 
Ain't gonna be alone 

          Bbm     G7 C7/9- 
I got a life to lead America 

                Bbm7 
I got a life to lead 

(Back to Verse) 
Tell me do you really think you go to hell for having loved? 
Tell me and not for thinking every thing that you've done is good 
(I really need to know) 
After soaking the body of Jesus Christ in blood 
I'm so tired of America 
(I really need to know) 

I may just never see you again or might as well 
You took advantage of a world that loved you well 
I'm going to a town that has already been burned down 
I'm so tired of you America 

Making my own way home 
Ain't gonna be alone 

(Break - Not tabbed yet sorry!) 

I got a life to lead America 
I got a life to lead 
I got a soul to feed 
I got a dream to heed 
And that's all I need 

Making my own way home 
Ain't gonna be alone 
I'm going to a town that has already been burned down
