      C#                       F#

Do-do-do-do-do-do...

Verse:
C#
 Wake up again in an old motel
     F#
Is it somewhere different? I canʼt tell
G#                            F#              C#
 Every set of curtains opens to the open road

And Iʼm missing you like hell
     F#
This van is like a prison cell
      G#                               F#               C#
And I know you have gone with her and I canʼt Go back home

Chorus:
                   A#m           F#  C#
Iʼve been American dreaminʼ, oh woah
             A#m           F#  C#
Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
             A#m           F#
Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
            G#             C#
But I never seem to get no rest

Verse:
C#
I should get some rest today
     F#
Then pack my bags, be on my way
    G#                               F#
But my mindʼs always workinʼ on the way it couldʼve been
C#
 Tryna tow a tightrope line
F#
 Find a way to feel half fine
G#                                  F#            C#
 Without drowninʼ in this wine and callinʼ you again

Chorus:
                   A#m           F#  C#
Iʼve been American dreaminʼ, oh woah
             A#m           F#  C#
Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
             A#m           F#
Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
            G#             C#
But I never seem to get no rest

Bridge:
F# F# C#
Ooh...
F# C# F#
Ooh...
F# C# G# C#
Ooh...

Verse:
    C#
Iʼm losinʼ touch with all my friends
    F#
The ones who remind me who I am
G#                                      F#                C#
 If I could just get back home to pick up where we left off
    C#
Iʼd take better care of myself
   F#
Iʼd stop drinkinʼ from the bottom shelf
   G#                                  F#                 C#
But my old wheels keep spinninʼ and I cannot make them stop

Chorus:
                   A#m           F#  C#
Iʼve been American dreaminʼ, oh woah
             A#m           F#  C#
Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
             A#m           F#
Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
            G#             C#
But I never seem to get no rest

Verse:
         C#
So I get back home and try to be
F#
 Someone thatʼs something like me
G#                                 F#               C#
 But Iʼve forgotten all my angels out here in the wind
C#
 Sittinʼ out here with my mind
 F#
I meditate to pass the time
G#                                          F#         A#m
 But thereʼs something inside settinʼ sail all over again

Ooh...
F# C# F#
Ooh...
F# C# G# C#
Ooh...
F# F# C#
Ooh...
F# C# F#
Ooh...
F# C# G# C#
Ooh...

Chorus:
                   A#m           F#  C#
Iʼve been American dreaminʼ, oh woah
             A#m           F#  C#
Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
                  A#m           F#
Iʼm just American dreaminʼ, oh woah
            G#             C#
But I never seem to get no rest
                 A#m           F#  C#
Oh, Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
             A#m           F#  C#

             A#m           F#
Iʼm American dreaminʼ, oh woah
            G#                C#
But I never seem to get no rest
