VERSE
Cmaj7 Gm/C F/C C
We heard Richard Nixon say, welcome to the U-S-A
G/B Am7
The common sense I sometimes lack
Dm7 G7
Has opened up a seismic crack
C/E F G
We've fallen in and I can't pull back
Ab Bb Cmaj7
And I guess we'll have to stay

VERSE
Cmaj7 Gm/C F/C C
In open arms we put our trust they put us on a big red bus
G/B Am7
Twin spirits soaking up a dream
Dm7 G
Fuel to feed the press machine
C/E F G
After years that were long and lean
Ab Bb Cmaj7
We're finally on our way
CHORUS
Bm7 E7 Am Am/G
And Richard Nixon's on his knees he's sent so many overseas
F G Cmaj7
He'd like to know if you and me could help him in some way
F D/F# G E7/G# Am
A little camouflage and glue to mask the evil that men do
F C/E Bb F
A small diversion caused by two, pale kids come to play
G Ab7 Bb Cmaj7
And we heard Richard Nixon say "welcome to the U-S-A"
VERSE
Cmaj7 Gm/C F/C C
Neither of us understood the way things ticked in Hollywood
G/B Am7
We just loaded in and grabbed the bat
Dm7 G7
With little room to swing a cat
C/E F G
And pretty soon we were where it's at
Ab Bb Cmaj7
Or so the papers say
Cmaj7 Gm/C F/C C
And all around us suntanned teens, beauty like we'd never seen
G/B Am7
Our heroes led us by the hand
Dm7 G7
Through Brian Wilson's promised land
C/E F G
Where Disney's God and he commands
Ab Bb Cmaj7
Both mice and men to stay
CHORUS
Bm7 E7 Am Am/G
And Richard Nixon's on his knees he's sent so many overseas
F G Cmaj7
He'd like to know if you and me could help him in some way
F D/F# G E7/G# Am
A little camouflage and glue to mask the evil that men do
F C/E Bb F
A small diversion caused by two, pale kids come to play
G Ab7 Bb Cmaj7
And we heard Richard Nixon say "welcome to the U-S-A"
BRIDGE
Eb Bb/D C
In a bright red Porsche on Sunset I saw Steve Mcqueen
Eb Bb/D C
I guess he's just about the coolest guy I've ever seen
F D/F# G E7/G#
And for you and me that speeding car is how it's going to be
Am D/F# G n/c
I see no brakes just open road and lots of gasoline
VERSE
C Gm/C F/C C
Oh we heard Richard Nixon say, welcome to the U-S-A
G/B Am7
The common sense I sometimes lack
Dm7 G7
Has opened up a seismic crack
C/E F G7
We've fallen in and I can't pull back

Pale kids come to play

And we heard Richard Nixon say, "I gotta go but you can stay"
