Verse 1
Oh well I’ve [G]made a small fortune selling used cars
And its [C]buried out back in a cookie jar
I [Em]raise a toast to senior escabar
For [C]giving me a pot to [D]piss in
Well I ran a little scam until ninety two
Now I’m hanging round here for something to do
I just keep talking till I’m blue
To anyone who’ll listen
Chorus
Yes we’re [Em]lost in [D][C]America
And this [Em]land we’re [D]so proud [C]of
We’ve got the [Em]cars, the girls, the[D] money,
the drugs to [C]get you out of your [A]rut
Yes we’re [C]lost in [D]America[G]
Verse 2
She got a brand new lease on an Escalade
And a bumper sticker about a whale to save
And she burning up gas like they gave it away
At least her kid’s on the honor roll
She got a handful of pills to improve her mood
Liposuction, big fake boobs
Got a Mexican maid that brings the food
The birdcage made of gold
Bridge
[Am]I’m dropping [D]out
And [Am]I’m quitting this [D]game
Yes I’m [C]washing my feet, [G/B]I turn off my phone, [Em]changing my name, [G/Bb]Hitting the
road
[C]Don’t really know [G/B]where I’m gonna go, [C]but I’m getting the hell out of [D]here
