[Verse 1]
B
 Looking out a dirty old window
                                   A
Down below the cars in the city go rushing by
  G         A          E
I sit here alone and I wonder why
B
 Friday night and everyone's moving
I can feel the heat but it's soothing,
A
heading down
  G              A            E
I search for the beat in this dirty town

[Pre-Chorus]
Downtown the young ones are going
F#
  Downtown the young ones are growing

[Chorus]
G                   D
 We're the kids in America
G                   D
 We're the kids in America
G              A               B
 Everybody live for the musicgoround

[Verse 2]
B
 Bright lights, the music gets faster
Look, boy, don't check on your watch,
     A
not another glance
    G           A           E
I'm not leaving now, honey, not a chance
B
 Hotshot, give me no problems
Much later, bab y,
                 A
you'll be saying nevermind
    G            A
You know life is cruel,
        E
life is never kind

[Pre-Chorus]
Kind hearts don't make a new story
F#
  Kind hearts don't grab any glory

[Chorus]
G                   D
 We're the kids in America
G                   D
 We're the kids in America
G              A               B
 Everybody live for the musicgoround

[Post-Chorus]
         D
La la la la la la la
A         G       A
 La la la lala la Sing
B         D
 La la la la la la la
A         G      A
 La la la lala la

[Verse 3]
B
 Come closer, honey, that's better
Got to get a brand new experience,
A
feeling right
    G            A
Oh, don't try to stop, baby,
E
hold me tight
B
 Outside a new day is dawning
                             A
Outside suburbia's sprawling everywhere
  G             A
I don't want to go, baby

[Pre-Chorus]
E
 New York to east California
F#
  There's a new wave coming, I warn ya

[Chorus]
G                   D
 We're the kids in America
G                   D
 We're the kids in America
G              A               B
 Everybody live for the musicgoround

[Post-Chorus]
