Standard (EADGBE)

Intro x2

Verse 1

When success is equated with excess

The ambition for excess wrecks us

As top of the mind becomes the bottom line

When success is equated with excess

Verse 2

If your time ain't been nothing for money

I start to feel really bad for you, honey

Maybe honey, put your money where your mouth's been running

If your time ain't been nothing but money

Pre-chorus

I want out of this machine

 It doesn't feel like freedom

Chorus

This ain't my American dream

I want to live and die for bigger things

I'm tired of fighting for just me

This ain't my American dream

Intro/Fill x1

Verse 3

When success is equated with excess

When we're fighting for the Beamer, the Lexus

As the heart and soul breath in the company goals

Where success is equated with excess

Prechorus

Chorus

Bridge

'Cause baby's always talkin' 'bout a ring

And talk has always been the cheapest thing

 Is it true would you do what I want you to

 If I show up with the right amount of bling?

 Like a puppet on a monetary string

Maybe we've been caught singing

Red, white, blue, and gree-ee-een

But that ain't my America,

That ain't my American dream

Chorus

Intro/Fill

Hope this helped someone. Enjoy and God Bless!
