Dillinger Four MINIMUM WAGE IS A GATEWAY DRUG Lyrics

I love this song, had to figure it out. First tab ever!
Intro:
Verse:
Yeah I'm stealing cigarettes Selling them off to friends for rent
Plus a paycheck and still in debt I'm asking, how could it be?
I know they know I'm beneath them Even homeless a**holes know my name
Now it's Urban Flight or cell for the night Y'know it's all the same
Pre-chorus:
One can tell themselves About when going gets tough
But determination Just ain't enough
A G (strum once)
When over-time defines your life
Chorus:
This American Me
This American Me
Verse 2 (same as first):
Tradition tells us home own But the timecards saying no go
Now the suits are talking foreclose From sea to shining sea
Time was a war time economy Was a silver lining to tragedy
But even those with homes are now those alone In the land of the free
I asked for nothing And I got it in spades
Worked for a living and I earned a cage
A G (strum once)
Now they say I look old for my age
This American me
This American me
I'm pretty sure that's right. Feel free to correct if not!
