Somewhere In The Middle(Chords)

	        To do the Intro chords and the end of the chorus, 
Best to use barre chords and it's almost a slide to 
The G.  
 
 
Intro: 
F G F G F G F G 
 
       G                                               F  G 
Livin' right the way we see it though it's seldom seen 
G                                                  F  G 
Bleeding from our hands just to grease the machine 
G                                              F  G 
Sometimes there ain't jack to do in this town 
G                                     
Go out and let the cops chase you around 
D 
This ain't New York, this ain't LA 
     Cadd9                                F  G   
It's somewhere in the middle of the USA 
 
 
There's no greener grass as far as I can see 
When the man's tired of giving you the first degree 
No better place to string up some fence 
To tear down the walls and to knock out the dents 
If the only thing working is an 8 hour day 
Is somewhere in the middle of the USA 

D 
Somewhere in the middle somewhere in between 
    G 
The center of the fringes of a rebels dream 
D 
No other place I'd rather be found 
     G 
It's probably where they'll plant me in the ground 
D 
Some people leave but most of them stay 
       Cadd9              F   G 
In the middle of the USA
 
 
 
People workin' for the kitty, trying to buy 'em a hound 
It slipped and got away, now it's back at the pound 
Everything we're doin is already done 
Now some pissed off kids are gonna have some fun 
Bite our tongue, there's nothing to say 
Somewhere in the middle of the USA 
 
There's no need to fix it, if it ain't broke 
They preach the perfect life and it's a dirty joke 
And we all know it's just a roll of the dice 
They try to sell it to you but they won't say the price 
This ain't New York, this ain't LA 
It's somewhere in the middle of the USA
