Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Dm][G][Am][F][Gsus4][G][Am]

[Verse 1]
Born down in [Am]a
dead man's town
[Dm]First kick I took was
when I hit the ground
[Am]You end up like a dog that's
been beat too much
Then you spend [Dm]half your life
trying to cover it [Am]up
Born in the USA
[Dm]Born in the USA
[Am]Born in the [Dm]USA[Am]
Got in a little hometown jam
[Dm]So they put a rifle in my ha[Am]nd
Sent me off to a land
[Dm]Go and kill the yellow man
[Am]I was born in the USA
[Dm]Born in the USA
[Am]Born in the [Dm]USA[Am]
[F][G][Am][F][G][Am]
Come back home to the refinery
The hir[Dm]ing man said, son,
if it was up to me
[Am]I went and I seen my VA man
He said, [Dm]son, don't you understand?
[Am]I had a brother at Khe Sanh,
[Dm]fighting off Viet Cong[Am].
He's still there and he's
all [Dm]gone.[Am]
He had a woman he loved in Saigon.
[Dm]I've got a picture of him in her
[F]arms[G][Am][F][G][Am]
Shadow of the penitentiary
[Dm]Out by the gas fires in the refinery
[Am]Ten years burning
down the road
[Dm]Nowhere to run,
ain't got nowhere to go
[Am]Born in the USA
[Dm]Born in the USA
[Am]Born in the [Dm]USA[Am]
Born in the USA,
[Dm]Born in the USA,
[Am]Born in the USA,
[Dm]Born in the USA
