[Verse]Bb D# Bb
I'm looking outside of my window
G#
The view that I see is a child and mama
And the child is begging for moneyBb
Tell me why, tell me why
The woman is blind
[Chorus] G#
It's such a beautiful city
But the world is burning it downBb
ya ya ya ya ya ya
ya ya ya ya ya G#
It's such a beautiful city
Bb
But the world is burning it down
I go to my room to turn on the TV G#
I sit myself down and I start laughing hard
'Cause this man he's asking for money Bb
He says if you send me lots of cash
[Chorus] G#
It's such a wonderful country
But the man he's burning it downBb
ya ya ya ya ya ya
ya ya ya ya ya G#
It's such a wonderful country
But the man he's burning it downBb
ya ya ya ya ya ya
ya ya ya ya ya G#
And it's burning down
[Verse]F# G# Bb
One day I'm going to have lots of money
F# G# Bb D#
But I'll have to give up for this rich society
F# G# Bb
Oh please Mr. President will you lend me a future
F# G#
'Cause you'll just get it back
D# G#
From the little blind woman with the kid on the corner
Bb D#
And the people all over, doin' crack
[Chorus]Bb
ya ya ya ya ya ya
ya ya ya ya ya G#
It's such a wonderful country
But the man he's burning it downBb
ya ya ya ya ya ya
ya ya ya ya ya G#
And it's burning down
Bb
And it's called the US of A
D# Bb
[Verse] D# Bb
I'm walking outside on a sunny day
Dm G#
With no one around and I wonder what's wrong
D#
The I hear this loud piercing siren
Bb D# Bb
Oh my God the bomb has just dropped
[Chorus] G#
Screaming, what a wonderful country
But the man he's burning it down, he's burning it downBb
ya ya ya ya ya ya

It's such a wonderful country
But the man he's burning it down, he's burning it downBb
ya ya ya ya ya ya
ya ya ya ya ya G#
And it's burning down
And it's called the US of ABb
ya ya ya ya ya ya
