Lirik & Kunci Gitar I'm So Bored with the USA
Key: F Major (or G Major with Capo 3, standard tuning for punk energy using open E/A shapes if transposed, but let's stick to the raw concert pitch or standard punk root positions: F Major / D minor context).
Capo: No Capo
[Intro]
F C Dm Bb
F C Dm Bb
[Verse 1]
F C Dm Bb
An airconditioned room can blind you to a world
F C Dm Bb
That's walkin' out on streets that are starvin' and curled
F C Dm Bb
In the metropolis of pity beyond any human pity
F C Dm Bb
With police car and siren in the death city
[Chorus]
F C Dm Bb
I'm so bored with the U.S.A.
F C Dm Bb
I'm so bored with the U.S.A.
F C Dm Bb
But it's everywhere
[Verse 2]
F C Dm Bb
Johnny Thunders was torn by the cops in New York
F C Dm Bb
I tear out the pages of the New York Post
F C Dm Bb
War in the ghetto and a raggedy clothes
F C Dm Bb
And the slick young policeman gives a look that goes
[Chorus]
F C Dm Bb
I'm so bored with the U.S.A.
F C Dm Bb
