Rick Moranis - America, My Truck Chords

America, My Truck
R. Moranis
Parody of "Our Country" by J. Mellencamp


INTRO (4x): G  F  C

G
America, she got muscle
    C
She tough and strong like steel
D           C
America can climb so high
    G              D
She never lose her feel


America, pull more than her weight
Plow thru anything in her way
America, the work horse of the world
And the very, very best at play


CHORUS:
    C           G
But America can spin her wheels
    C         Em       D
And sometimes she gets stuck
C      G
I love America
D            G
America's my truck


INTRO


America, she got power
Never let her run right out of gas
Headlights shine into the future
But her tracks leavin' dust in her past

America, she love football
She drop her tail so sweet
It's 4th of July, there's fireworks in the sky
So save me a power seat


CHORUS:
But America can stall and spin
On patches of bad luck
I love America
America's my truck


INTRO


BRIDGE 1:
    C                       G
Now Lincoln didn't drive no Lincoln
    C         Em    D
And Rosa just rode a bus
    C                   Em
And Martin had a dream, Nixon liked to scheme
                C                          D
Try to make the country a better place for us


BRIDGE 2:
Now Jack and his brother Bobby, they had a vision
So Neil took a walk on the moon
And Louis still wails right thru Louisiana gales
You can't stop no Dixieland Tune


But America needs a tune-up
All those shocks and brakes, the way she steers
Some tender loving care, cleaner water, fresher air
Keep her on course for a couple more years


CHORUS:
    C                          G
But America needs more than an overhaul
          C               Em          D
Ain't the same since that day she was struck
C        G
I love American
         C                  G
But with this much wear and tear, it can
C                           G
And an interest rate that's fair, I can
C          G
Only in America
      D                  C
Can I get me a brand new truck

          G                                   C
I love America (gonna drive, drive across the country)
         G
I love America (gonna drive, drive across the ocean)
          C
Brand new truck
              G                  C
I love, gonna get me a brand new truck
          G                 C
I love America, a brand new truck
          G                  C
I'm gonna get me a brand new truck
                     G                  C
I'm gonna get, gonna get me a brand new truck
           G                       C
I love and I'm gettin' a brand new truck
            G      
I love when I get a brand new truck
