[Verse 1]
By Bmhappy hearts so Dbroken
We stuck Emby you, and you know
Your bold Bmswagger made us Dforget
The dagger at our Emthroat
BmYou're always in a Dhurry and a rage
  EmI call it defiance of coming of age
  BmBut you've cast your Dlast spell on us
  EmYou've bombed your last bridge to us, oh
[Chorus]
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
[Verse 2]
  BmYou would have won the Dworld by letting go
  EmBut then you lost your way
  BmYour glory days are Dgone, so smile and roll over
  EmWe've got so much more in common today
  BmAll hail the Dstumbling child king
  EmCalling for the vanishing light
Now Bmstay with us, as Dbrothers
  EmThrough this darkest of nights, oh
[Chorus]
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
[Bridge]
  DAnd I remember how you sang
  EmWe shall all sing again:
"Screw the Bmrest
The west knows Gbest"
  DYeah, I remember how you sang
  EmWe shall all just sing it:
"Screw the Bmrest
The west knows Gbest
Oh, screw the Bmrest
The west knows Gbest
Screw the Bmrest
The west knows Gbest
Screw the Bmrest
The west knows Gbest"
[Outro]
  BmWe used to Dlove AEmmerica
