 G#    Fm        Cm
Cigarettes and tiny liquor bottles,
           G#     Fm      Cm           D#
Just what you’d expect inside her new Balenciaga.
 G#    Fm            Cm
Bad romance, turned dreams into an empire.
      G#      Fm           Cm             D#
Self-made success now she rose with Rockafellas.

    G#                        Fm           D#
Survival of the richest, the city’s ours until the fall.
         G
They're Monaco and Hampton’s bound but
we don’t feel like outsiders at all.

Chorus:
G#                    Cm
We are the new Americana,
A#                     Gm
high on legal marijuana,
G#                       Cm
raised on Biggie and Nirvana,
A#                      Gm
we are the new Americana.

Young James Dean, some say he looks just like his father
But he could never love somebody’s daughter
Football team loved more than just the game
So he vowed to be his husband at the altar

Survival of the richest,
the city’s ours until the fall
They're Monaco and Hamptons bound
But we don’t feel like outsiders at all

Chorus

G#                  Cm
We know very well who we are,
A#                       Gm
so we hold it down when summer starts.
G#                  Cm
What kind of dough have you been spending?
A#
What kind of bubblegum have you been blowing lately?
