(Verse Riff x3)
[D]She was an [Bm]American girl [G]raised on [A]promises
[D]She couldn't [Bm]help thinking that there was a [G]little more to life
[A]Somewhere else
[D]After all it was a [Bm]great big world wi[G]th lots of places to ru[A]n to
And if [A]she had to die trying, she had one little promise she was gonna keep

[G]Oh yeah, [A]all right
[D]Take it easy baby
[Bm]Make it last all night
[G]She was an [A]American girl[D]

(Verse Riff x3)
[D]It was kind of [Bm]cold that night as she [G]stood alone on the [A]balcony
[D]She could hear the [Bm]cars roll by
out on [G]four forty one like [A]waves crashing on the beach
[D]And for one desperate [Bm]moment there [G]she crept back in her [A]memory
[A]God, it's so painful when something that's so close
[A]Is still so far out of reach

[G]Oh yeah, [A]all right
[D]Take it easy baby
[Bm]Make it last all night
[G]She was an [A]American girl[D]

(Solo - arranged for one guitar)
