~INTRO~
B5 A5 B5 A5 B5 C#5 B5 A5 Ab5 F#5 E5 B5
~VERSE~
B5
When success is equated with excess
The ambition for excess wrecks us
The top of the mind becomes the bottom line
When success is equated with excess
If your time ain't been nothing for money
I start to feel really bad for your honey
Maybe honey put your money where your mouth's been running
If your time ain't been nothing but money
~PRE-CHORUS~
E5 F#5 Ab5 A5
I want out of this machine it doesn't feel like freedom
~CHORUS~
B5 E5 A5
This ain't my American dream
B5 E5 A5
I want to live and die for bigger things
C#5 F#5
I'm tired of fighting for just me
B5
This ain't my American dream
~INTERLUDE~
(B5) A5 B5 A5 B5 C#5 B5 A5 Ab5 F#5 E5 B5
~VERSE 2~
B5
When success is equated with excess
When you're fighting for the Beamer the Lexus
As the heart and soul breathe in the company goals
Where success is equated with excess
~REPEAT PRE-CHORUS~
~REPEAT CHORUS~
~BRIDGE~
B5
'Cause baby's always talkin' 'bout a ring
And talk has always been the cheapest thing
Is it true would you do what I want you to
E5 B5
If I show up with the right amount of bling
C#5 B5 A5 Ab5 F#5 E5 B5
Like a puppet on a monetary string
C#5 B5 A5 Ab5 F#5 E5 C#5 F#5
Maybe we've been caught singing red white blue and green
N.C
But that ain't my America
That ain't my American dream
~REPEAT CHORUS~

~VERSE~ (Chords are the same as verse 1)
With an army of me
We invent our own enemies
Man versus machine
And the dirty second hands the dirty second hands
In the land of the free
And the home of the remedy
The old clock is a thief
With dirty second hands with dirty second hands
~REPEAT CHORUS~
~BRIDGE~ NOTE:You keep repeating the intro riff all the way through
The bridge, until the chords come in, or you can just play D5/A throughout.
Are you really as tough as you think
You blink and you're over the brink
You bleed but the blood runs pink
With dirty second hands dirty second hands
You're not quite as tough as you thought
You bought the American rot
The very seed that you thought you shot
With dirty second hands dirty second hands
You might be right the fight might be right inside you
The blind leading the lied to
Tonight maybe you bind you with dirty second hands
F5 B5 F5 B5 C5 C#5 D5/A
Here's the face of everything that brakes you down
You bind you with dirty second hands
F5 B5 F5 B5 C5 C#5 D5/A
Now you face the face of everything that brakes you down
You bind you with dirty second hands
F5 B5 F5 B5 C5 C#5 D5/A
Now you face the face of everything that brakes you down
~OUTRO~
Play the intro riff once, and then end on D5/A.

You might want to check the chord inversions at the bottom before you try
playing them, since they are not the normal fingering. Also, the question
mark stands for a chord that I could not find the name for, but it sounded
good, so I didn't try changing it. It is also listed at the end.

In this world of news I've found nothing new

I hope you enjoy playing all these wonderful songs, and that they don't leave
you disgruntled and upset. As for me, I have enjoyed the many hours spent
tabbing these songs, and I hope that those hours were not spent for not.
Peace, Love, I'm out.
