Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Looking  out a dirty old window.
 Down below the cars in the city go rushing  by.
 I sit  here alone  and I wonder  why.
Friday  night and everyone's moving.
 I can feel the heat but it's soothing.
Heading  down,
 I search  for the beat  in this dirty  town.
Down  town the young ones are going.
Down  town the young ones are growing.
We're  the kids in America.
 We're the kids in America.
Everybody live  for the music-go-round.
Bright  ligths the music get faster.
 Look boy, don't check on your watch, not another  glance.
 I'm not  leaving now,  honey not  a chance.
Hot-shot,  give me no problems.
 Much later baby you'll be saying never  mind.
 You know  life is cruel,  life is never  kind.
Kind  hearts don't make a new story.
Kind  hearts don't grab any glory.
We're  the kids in America.
 We're the kids in America.
Everybody live  for the music-go-round.
 Instumental
Come  closer, honey that's better.
 Got to get a brand new experience.
Feeling  right.
 Oh don't  try to stop  baby, hold  me tight.
Outside  a new day is dawning.
 Outside Suburbia's sprawling everywhere.
 I don't  want to go  baby.
New  York to East California.
There's  a new wave coming I warn you.
We're  the kids in America.
 We're the kids in America.
Everybody live  for the music-go-round.
We're  the kids
We're  the kids
We're  the kids in America
We're  the kids
We're  the kids
We're  the kids in America
We're  the kids
We're  the kids
We're  the kids in America
We're  the kids
We're  the kids
We're  the kids in America
