[Intro]
D
 
 
[Verse 1]
DI wrote myself a poem
EmOn a greasy paper plate
DI left it for the waitress
Em'Cause I liked the way she waits
DIt was all about the people
EmAnd I hope it's not too late
DI've seen it all
 
 
[Verse 2]
DI've heard the politicians
EmEvery word an empty sound
DI've watched the money brokers
EmTakin' everybody down
DAnd forget about the media
EmThey're just propaganda clowns
DI've seen it all
 
 
[Chorus 1]
D GI don't see what other people see
D GI see life the way it ought to bе
D G EmRich girls waste the fortune on a rag
DThеy're gonna fall
EmThe American Flag
DThey're gonna fall
 
 
[Verse 3]
DThe grinnin' kid from Twitter
EmDestruction on parade
DThe busy boy from Facebook
EmOnly wanted to get laid
DThe Google guys don't give a damn
EmAs long as they get paid
DI've seen it all
 
 
[Chorus 2]
D GI don't see what other people see
D GI see life the way it ought to bе
D G EmRich dudes think they got it in the bag
DThеy're gonna fall
EmThe American Flag
 
 
[Guitar Solo]
D G Em D G Em D
 
 
[Verse 4]
DI went to New York City
EmJust to watch the Apple rot
DAnd I went up to Chicago
EmTo see if I'd get shot
DAnd the dream of California
EmIsn't worth a second thought
DI've seen it all
 
 
[Chorus 3]
D GI don't see what other people see
D GI see life the way it ought to be
D G EmBad guys write a book so they can brag
DI've seen it all
EmThe American Flag
 
 
[Outro]
D GI don't see what other people see
D GI see life the way it ought to be
D G EmLiars livin' off the people makes me mad
DI've seen it all
EmThe American Flag
DI've seen it all
EmThe American Flag
DI've seen it all
EmThe American Flag
