VERSE
                      
Don't breathe too deep, Don't think all day
              
Dive into work, Drive the other way
                           
That drip of hurt, That pint of shame
                      
Goes away, Just play the game


CHORUS
                       
You're living in America
                    (1)  
At the end of the millennium
                       
You're living in America
                              
Leave your conscience at the tone
                                
And when you're living in America
                    (1)  
At the end of the millennium
   (CHORUS-RIFF1 HERE)
You're what you own


VERSE
                         
The filmmaker cannot see, And the songwriter cannot hear
                         
Yet I see Mimi everywhere, Angel's voice is in my ear
                                                   
Just tighten those shoulders, Just clench your jaw til you frown
                            
Just don't let go, Or you may drown


CHORUS
                       
You're living in America
                    (1)  
At the end of the millennium
                       
You're living in America
                              
Where it's like the twilight zone
                                
And when you're living in America
                    (1)  
At the end of the millennium
   (CHORUS-RIFF1 HERE)
You're what you own


BRIDGE
                 
So I own not a notion
      
I escape an ape content
                     
I don't own emotion- I rent

                     
What was it about that night
                     
Connection- In an isolating age
                               
For once the shadows gave way to light
                     
For once I didn't disengage

                   
Angel- I hear you- I hear it

I see it- I see it my film!
          
Alexi-Mark, Call me a hypocrite
  
I need to finish my Own film
I quit!


CHORUS2
              
Dying in America
                       
At the end of the millennium
                   
We're dying in America
                        
To come into our own
                              
And when you're dying in America
                         
At the end of the millennium
   (CHORUS-RIFF2 HERE)
You're not alone
        (2)
I'm not alone
        (2)
I'm not alone

Possibly the most appalling end to a song ever but up to then it's 
pretty good. Tab is perfect although the C#5 in the chorus sounds 
a little dissonant but it shold be fine.
