Apple Music Sessions [Intro] D [Verse]
D                E7
Well, she was an American girl

G         A
Raised on promises

D                 E7
She couldn't help thinkin' that there was a

G                   A
little more to life somewhere else
[Pre-Chorus]
A                  D
After all it was a great big world

G                      Em
With lots of places to run to

A
And if she had to die tryin' she had one little promise she was gonna keep
[Chorus]
G       A          D                   Bm
O yeah, all right, take it easy, baby, make it last all night

G       A           D
She was an American girl
[Verse]
D                  E7
Well, it was kinda cold that night

G                      A
She stood alone on the balcony

D                        E7
Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by

       G              A
Out on 441 like waves crashin' on the beach
[Pre-Chorus]
A                     D
And for one desperate moment there

G                    Em
He crept back in her memory

A
God it's so painful when something that's so close is still so far out of reach
[Chorus]
G       A          D                   Bm
O yeah, all right, take it easy, baby, make it last all night

G       A           D
She was an American girl
