(D major) Well she was an A (E major) merican girl

(G major) Raised on (A major) promises

(D major) She couldn't help (E major) thinkin' that there

Was a (G major) little more to life

(A major) Somewhere else

After all it was a (D major) great big world

(G major) With lots of places to (E minor) run to

(A major) Yeah, and if she had to die tryin'

She had one little promise

She was gonna keep

(G major) Oh yeah, (A major) alright

(D major) Take it easy baby

(B minor) Make it last all night

(G major) She was (A major) an American girl

(D major) Well, it was kind of (E major) cold that night

(G major) She stood alone on her (A major) balcony

(D major) Yeah, she could hear the (E major) cars roll by

Out on (G major) 441

Like (A major) waves crashin' on the beach

And for one desperate (D major) moment there

(G major) He crept back in her (E minor) memory

(A major) God it's so painful

Something that is so close

And still so far out of reach

(G major) Oh yeah, (A major) alright

(D major) Take it easy baby

(B minor) Make it last all night

(G major) She was (A major) an American girl
