Mr. America, walk on by
        A         D        C     D
Your schools that do not teach
A       D     C          D
Mr. America, walk on by
      A              D     C     D
The minds that won't be reached

Mr. America try to hide

The emptiness that's you inside
     A             D        C              D
But once you find that the way you lied
     A        D     C                D
And all the corny tricks you tried
      A             D    C         D
Will not forestall the rising tide of

Great mid-western hardware store
    D           Amaj7
Philosophy that turns away
       D               Amaj7
From those who aren't afraid to say

What's on their minds

The left behinds of the great soc-i---et---y

Mr. America, walk on by
      A     D      C     D
Your supermarket dream

Mr. America, walk on by
