Capo on 3rd fret
[Intro]
Em C G
[Verse 1]
Em C G
What will you do on the weekends
Em
When your best friends
C G
Become your dead friends?
Em
From all the sugar
C G
And all the sweetness
Em
This little sweet tooth
C G
It is your weakness
[Chorus]
G Em
They've got american candy
C G
You're sweet and sated, so sedated
Em
For the american kids
C G
You're hooked and baited, annihilated
Em
Even if you wanted to
C G
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet
Em
But this american candy
C Em C G
It'll rot your teeth
[Verse 2]
Em C G
Try to think back to back to a time when
Em C G
You loved what you loved because you loved it
Em
Before the sugar
C G
And all the sweetness
Em
Filled up your lungs now
C G
It's all you breath in
[Chorus]
G Em
They've got american candy
C G
You're sweet and sated, so sedated
Em
For the american kids
C G
You're hooked and baited, annihilated
Em
Even if you wanted to
C G
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet
Em
But this american candy
C G
It'll rot your teeth, your teeth, your!
[Bridge]
(C-G-Em-D all the way)
C G
Sometimes I feel as though I'm going mad when
Em D
I get a touch of saccharine on my lips
C G
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet
Em D C G Em
I don't fancy american candy
D C G Em D
American candy
C (one stroke)
[Chorus]
Em
They've got american candy
C G
You're sweet and sated, so sedated
Em
For the american kids
C G
You're hooked and baited, annihilated
Em
Even if you wanted to
C G
You couldn't stop it's just so sweet
Em
But this american candy
C G
It'll rot your teeth
Until your gums the bleed
[Coda]
(C-G-Em-D)
C G
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet
Em D
I don't fancy american candy,
C G Em D
Oh, you're so-so-so sweet and sated, baby
C G
I hate the taste on my tongue too damn sweet
Em D
I don't fancy american candy
[Ending]
