N.C.
[tab]G C C/B
It was the town that made America famous[/tab]
Am D G The churches full and the kids
gone to hell
[tab]G
Six traffic lights, and seven cops[/tab]
[tab] C C C/B
And all the streets kept clean[/tab]
[tab]Am D C G
The supermarket and the drug store and the bars all doin' well[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
Now they were the folks that made America famous[/tab]
[tab] Am C D G
Our local fire department stocked with short-haired volunteers[/tab]
[tab]G
And on Saturday night, while America boozes[/tab]
[tab] C C C/B
The fire department showed dirty movies[/tab]
[tab] Am C/B Am C/G Am C/G
The lawyer and the grocer seein' their dreams come to life on the movie screen[/tab]
[tab]F D C
While the plumber hopes that he won't be seen, as he tries to hide his fears[/tab]
[tab] G
And he wipes away his tears[/tab]
[tab] Bb A
But somethin's burinin' somewhere[/tab]
[tab] B G
DOES ANYBODY CARE?[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
We were the kids that made America famous[/tab]
[tab] Am D G
The kind of kids that long since drove our parents to despair[/tab]
[tab]G
We were lazy long-hairs droppin' out[/tab]
[tab]C C C/B
Lost, confused, and coppin' out[/tab]
[tab]Am D
Convinced our futures were in doubt[/tab]
[tab]C G
And tryin' not to care[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
We lived in the house that made America famous[/tab]
[tab] Am C D G
It was a run-down slum, the shame of all the decent folks in town[/tab]
[tab]G
We're hippies and some welfare cases[/tab]
[tab]C C C/B
Crowded families of cold, black faces[/tab]
[tab]Am C/B Am
Cramped inside some cracked old boards[/tab]
[tab]C/G Am C/G
The best that we all could afford[/tab]
[tab]F D C
But still too fine for the rich landlord to ever tear it down[/tab]
[tab]G
And we could hear the sound[/tab]
[tab] Bb A
Of somethin' burnin' somewhere[/tab]
[tab] B G
IS ANYBODY THERE?[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
We all lived the life that made America famous[/tab]
[tab] Am D G
Our cops would make a point to shadow us around our town[/tab]
[tab]G C C C/B
And we love children put a swastika on the bright red firehouse door[/tab]
[tab]Am D C G
America, the beautiful, it makes a body proud[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
And then came the night that made America famous[/tab]
[tab] Am C D G
Was it carelessness or someone's sick idea of a joke?[/tab]
[tab] G C C C/B
In the tinder-box trap we hippies lived in someone struck a spark[/tab]
[tab] Am C/B Am
At first I thought that I was dreamin'[/tab]
[tab]C/G Am C/G
Then I saw the first flames gleamin'[/tab]
[tab]F D
And heard the sound of children screamin'[/tab]
[tab]C G
Comin' through the smoke[/tab]
[tab] Bb A
And somethin's burnin' somewhere[/tab]
[tab] B G
DOES ANYBODY CARE?[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
Oh, it was the fire that made America famous[/tab]
[tab] Am D G
The sirens wailed and the firemen stumbled sleepin' from their homes[/tab]
[tab]G
And when the plumber yelled, "C'mon, let's go!"[/tab]
[tab]C C C/B
They saw what was burnin' and said, "Take it slow"[/tab]
[tab]Am
"Let 'em sweat a little"[/tab]
[tab]D
"They'll never know"[/tab]
[tab]C
"And besides, we just cleaned the chrome"[/tab]
[tab]N.C. G
Said the plumber, "Then I'm goin' alone"[/tab]
[tab]G
Well he rolled on up in the fire truck[/tab]
[tab]Am
And raised the ladder to the ledge[/tab]
[tab] C C/B Am D
While me and my girl and a couple of kids were clinging like bats to the edge[/tab]
[tab]G
We staggered to salvation[/tab]
[tab]C C C/B
Collapsed on the street[/tab]
[tab] Am D
And I never thought that a fat man's face[/tab]
[tab] C G
Would ever look so sweet[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
I shook his hand in the scene that made America famous[/tab]
[tab] Am D G
And he smiled from the heart that made America great[/tab]
[tab] G C C C/B
We spent the rest of that night in the home of this man that we'd never known before[/tab]
[tab] Am D C G
It's funny; when you get that close, it's kind of hard to hate[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
I went to sleep with the hope that made America famous[/tab]
[tab] Am C D G
I had the kind of a dream that maybe they're still trying to teach in school[/tab]
[tab]G C C/B
O' the America that made America famous[/tab]
[tab]Am C/B Am
And of the people who just might understand[/tab]
[tab]C/G Am C/G
That how together, yes we can[/tab]
[tab]F
Create a country better than[/tab]
[tab]D
The one we have made of this land[/tab]
[tab]F
We have the choice[/tab]
[tab]F
To make each man[/tab]
[tab]D
Who dares to dream[/tab]
[tab]D
Reachin' out his hand[/tab]
[tab]C G
A prophet or just a crazy damn dreamer or a fraud[/tab]
[tab] C G
Yes, a crazy fraud[/tab]
[tab] Bb A
and somethin's burnin' somewhere[/tab]
[tab]B G
DOES ANYBODY CARE?[/tab]
[tab] G
IS ANYBODY THERE?[/tab]
[tab] G
IS ANYBODY THERE?????[/tab]
