[Intro]
C Em Am G  x2
[Verse]
C                         Em 
I hopped off the plane at L.A.X. 
Am                           G 
With a dream and my cardigan 
C                           Em 
Welcome to the land of fame excess, 
Am             G 
Am I gonna fit in? 
C 
Jumped in the cab, 
         Em                 Am 
Here I am for the first time 
                                         G 
Look to my right and I see the Hollywood sign 
C                   Em 
This is all so crazy 
Am                       G 
Everybody seems so famous
[Pre-Chorus]
C                          Em                     Am 
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda home sick 
                                  G 
Too much pressure and I'm nervous, 
C                                  Em 
That's when the taxi man turned on the radio 
Am                     G 
And a Jay-Z song was on 
Am                     G 
And the Jay-Z song was on 
G                      G 
And the Jay-Z song was on
[Chorus]
            C 
So I put my hands up 
        Em              Am 
They're playing my song, 
                            G 
And the butterflies fly away 
    C                    Em  Am 
I'm noddin' my head like yeah 
                            G 
I'm movin' my hips like yeah 
         C 
I got my hands up, 
        Em             Am 
They're playin' my song 
                      G 
I know I'm gonna be OK 
C Em Am                      G 
Yeah, it's a party in the USA 
C Em Am                      G 
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
[Verse]
C                     Em 
Get to the club in my taxi cab 
Am                           G 
Everybody's looking at me now 
     C                         Em 
Like "Who's that chick, that's rockin' kicks? 
Am                            G 
She gotta be from out of town" 
C               Em                 Am 
So hard with my girls not around me 
                                     G 
It's definitely not a Nashville party 
C                    Em       Am 
'cause all I see are stilettos 
                            G 
I guess I never got the memo
[Pre-Chorus]
C                          Em                     Am 
My tummy's turnin' and I'm feelin' kinda home sick 
                                 G 
Too much pressure and I'm nervous 
C                               Em 
That's when the D.J. dropped my favorite tune 
Am                     G 
and a Britney song was on 
Am                     G 
and a Britney song was on 
G                      G 
and a Britney song was on
[Chorus]
            C 
So I put my hands up 
        Em              Am 
They're playing my song, 
                            G 
And the butterflies fly away 
    C                    Em  Am 
I'm noddin' my head like yeah 
                            G 
I'm movin' my hips like yeah 
         C 
I got my hands up, 
        Em             Am 
They're playin' my song 
                      G 
I know I'm gonna be OK 
C Em Am                      G 
Yeah, it's a party in the USA 
C Em Am                      G 
Yeah, it's a party in the USA
[Bridge]
Em                     Am 
Feel like hoppin' on a flight (on a flight) 
Em                     Dm 
Back to my hometown tonight (town tonight) 
Em                       Am 
Something stops me every time (every time) 
F                                 G 
The DJ plays my song and I feel alright
[Chorus]
            C 
So I put my hands up 
        Em              Am 
They're playing my song, 
                            G 
And the butterflies fly away 
    C                    Em  Am 
I'm noddin' my head like yeah 
                            G
