To do the Intro chords and the end of the chorus,
Best to use barre chords and it’s almost a slide to
The G.
Intro:
F G F G F G F G
G F G
Livin’ right the way we see it though it’s seldom seen
G F G
Bleeding from our hands just to grease the machine
G F G
Sometimes there ain’t jack to do in this town
G
Go out and let the cops chase you around
D
This ain’t New York, this ain’t LA
Cadd9 F G
It’s somewhere in the middle of the USA
There’s no greener grass as far as I can see
When the man’s tired of giving you the first degree
No better place to string up some fence
To tear down the walls and to knock out the dents
If the only thing working is an 8 hour day
Is somewhere in the middle of the USA
Chorus:
D
Somewhere in the middle somewhere in between
G
The center of the fringes of a rebels dream
D
No other place I’d rather be found
G
It’s probably where they’ll plant me in the ground
D
Some people leave but most of them stay
Cadd9 F G
In the middle of the USA
People workin’ for the kitty, trying to buy ‘em a hound
It slipped and got away, now it’s back at the pound
Everything we’re doin is already done
Now some pissed off kids are gonna have some fun
Bite our tongue, there’s nothing to say
Somewhere in the middle of the USA
There’s no need to fix it, if it ain’t broke
They preach the perfect life and it’s a dirty joke
And we all know it’s just a roll of the dice
They try to sell it to you but they won’t say the price
This ain’t New York, this ain’t LA
It’s somewhere in the middle of the USA
Chorus
