[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D Well she was an AEmerican girl
G Raised on Apromises
D She couldn't help Ethinkin' that there
Was a Glittle more to life
ASomewhere else
After all it was a Dgreat big world
G With lots of places to Erun to
AYeah, if she had to die
Tryin' she had one little promise
She was gonna keep
[Chorus]
G Oh yeah,A all right
D Take it easy baby
Bm Make it last all night
G She wasA an American Dgirl
[Verse 2]
D Well, It was kind of Ecold that night
GShe stood alone on her Abalcony
D Yeh, she could hear the Ecars roll by
Out on Gfour fourty one
Like Awaves crashin' in on the beach
And for one desperate Dmoment there
GHe crept back in her Ememory
AGod it's so painful
Something that's so close
And still so far out of reach
[Chorus]
G Oh yeah,A all right
D Take it easy baby
Bm Make it last all night
G She wasA an American Dgirl
