[verse]
F#
Oh, I don't know, I don't know, oh where to begin
A B
We are North Americans
F#
And for those of you who still think we're from England
A B
We're like, no
F#
We've been on planes and on trains
A B
Till we think we might die, far from North America
F#
Where the buildings are old
A B
And you might have lots of mimes
F#
I hate the feeling when you're loookin' at me that way
A B
'Case we're North Americans
F#
But if we act all shy, it'll make it okay
A B
It makes it go away
F#
Oh, I don't know, oh, where to begin
A B
When we're North Americans
F#
But in the end, make the same mistakes all over again
A B
Come on, North America!

[verse]
F#
And all the kids, all the kids who want to make the scene
A B
Here in North America
F#
Well now your kids get to read it in your magazines
A B
We don't have those
F#
So where's the love, where's the love,
A B
Where's the love tonight
F#
But there's no love man,
A B
There's no love and the kids are uptight
F#
So throw a party until the cops come in and bust it up
A B
Let's go North America
F#
Oh, you were planning it I didn't mean to interrupt
A B
Sorry
F#
I did it once and my parents got pretty upset
A B
Freaked out in North America
F#
But then I said the more I do it, the better it gets
A B
Let's rock North America
[chorus]

[verse]
F#
New York's the greatest if you get someone to pay the rent
A B
We're from North America
F# A B
It's the furthest you can live from the government
F#
Some proud American Christians might disagree
A B
Here in North America
F#
but New York's the only place
A B
We're keeping them off the street
F#
Now we can't have parties like in Spain where they go all night
A B
Shut down in North America
F# A B
Oh, like Berlin where they go another night, alright
F#
You see, I love this place that I've grown to know
A B
Alright, North America
F#
And yeah, I know you wouldn't touch us with a ten foot pole
A B
'Cause we're North Americans!

F#
Take me back to the States man
A B F#
North American scum
F#
Well, we could be where we want to be in
A B
in North America
F#
Where the DJ gigs aren't as lame
A B F#
Here in North American scum
F#
But don't blame the Canadians
A B
Look out, North America
