Am I The Midwest

D F#m G D A D Am I the Midwest F#m The one we read about G The one they send the reporters to cross the state borders D A Just to figure the people out D Am I the Midwest F#m The one we sing about G All pockmarked with Dairy Queens, state football dreams D A And university towns G Am I the Midwest D The one we blame G The one we castigate D The one we shamе Bm The one that shows up F#m On time at еight G A The one we love D The one we hate D F#m G D A D Am I the Midwest F#m The one they photograph G After Delphi leaves and the workers grieving D A Become another think piece D Am I the Midwest F#m The one they interview G On the radio stations in the European nations D A Where Americana still feels new G Am I the Midwest D The one that blames G The one that speaks up D Two years too late Bm The one that shows up F#m On election day G A The one that votes D The one that hates D F#m G D A G Am I the Midwest D A The plain-spoken grout between the coasts G Am I the Midwest D A Home of miniature golf and self-conscious boasts G Am I the Midwest D A Home of jersey cows in stallion shoes Bm A Am I the Midwest D The one in the news
