G A C
Well, she was an American girl
D
Raised on promises
G A
She couldn't help thinkin' that there
C D
Was a little more to life somewhere else
G
After all it was a great big world
C A
With lots of places to run to
D
And if she had to die tryin' she
C
Had one little promise she was gonna keep
D
O yeah, all right
G
Take it easy, baby
Em C
Make it last all night
D G
Yeah, she was an American girl
G A
Well, it was kind of cold that night
C D
As she stood alone on her balcony
G A
Yeah, she could hear the cars roll by
C D
Out on 441 like waves crashin' on the beach
G
And for one desperate moment there
C A
He crept back in her memory
D
God, it's so painful when something that's so close
C
Is still so far out of reach
D
O yeah, all right
G
Take it easy, baby
Em C
Make it last all night
D G
Yeah, she was an American girl
[Instrumental]
