E A E
I am not American,
A E
Though I live in North America
A B E
Which is part of the Americas
A B
Which should make me an American
verse 2: (Same chords as verse 1)
A E
They're out in the middle of the Ocean
A B E
Just like the U.S. Virgin Islands,
A G#m C#m
Who really shouldn't say they are Americans,
F# B
Or even virgins
E A E
How did two whole continents,
A E
Lose their name to one constituent?
A G#m C#m
Where were we when the U.S. went,
F# B
And took the word American away?
But to be fair to them,
C#
We're surrounded by Americans. Americans!
F# B F#
I just called those U.S.A.ers Americans
B F#
A name meant for two continents not just them
B C# Bbm Ebm
For if I said I was American,
G# C#
People would probably think I came from Maine
B C# F#
Still I think I have a plan,
B C# F#
Let's become Antarctican,
B C# Bbm Ebm
And join up with the penguins
G# C# B C# F# B F#
For just like them, we're not American!
