[Verse 1]
 F                        C
 Do you know the cost of future misery? 
 F                         C
 Have you lost your sense of sustainability?

               Bb              F                 C
 We are just a step away from realizing what we strive to be
                  Bb                   F          C 
 But we've got to break out from this insulated blind and lame senility

[Chorus 1]
 Bb               F      C
 Wake up the new America Wo oh Wo oh
 Bb                     F       C
 Transcend in the mass hysteria Wo oh Wo oh
 Bb                         F         C 
 Change is the thing you're wary of Wo oh Wo oh
 Bb               F      C
 We need a new America Wo oh Wo oh

[Verse 2]
  F                         C
 Laurels, human triumph bestowments from the past
  F                         C
 Victories don't mean a thing if they don't last
              Bb              F                 C
 We are just marching towards extinction with blinders on our eyes
              Bb              F                    C 
Jeopardizing everything we've learned and come to realize. You call that wise?

[Chorus 2]
 Bb                F      C
 Open your eyes America Wo oh Wo oh
 Bb                         F            C      
 See through the lies they tell to us Wo oh Wo oh
 Bb                        F        C
 Confront the fears that worry us Wo oh Wo oh
 Bb              F         C
 We need a new America Wo oh Wo oh

[Middle 8]
  F               Eb  Bb                 Eb
 We don't have to be afraid to re-invent
  F                         Eb     Bb               Eb
 We've got to start to build, progress and implement
  F                         Eb    Bb               Eb
 For when we take our fill and never pay the price
  F                       Eb   Bb            Eb     F
 We only build ourselves a fleeting, false paradise

                   Bb               F               C 
 You can live in staunch denial and mark me as your enemy
                 Bb                 F                  C
 But I'm just a voice amongst the throng who want a brighter destiny. Then say with me

[Chorus 3]
 Bb                F       C
 We are the new America Wo oh Wo oh
 Bb                F          C
 This is the new America Wo oh Wo oh
  Bb               F            C
 We are the new America Wo oh Wo oh
  Bb              F          C
 This is the new America Wo oh Wo oh - let's go!
