[Verse 1]
D E Well, she was an American girl G A Raised on promises D E 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 Yeah 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 2]
D E 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 G 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 G She was an American girl A D Bm G O yeah, all right, take it easy, baby, make it last all night A D N.C. She was an American girl

G D A Goodnight baby D A Sleep tight my love D Bm G May God watch over you D From above A So sleep tight baby D A Unfurrow your brow D Bm Then know I love you G Bm We're alright for now G D We're alright for now
