[Intro]
A D G F#m D A D G A D
[Verse 1]
A D G F#
If I could, I'd be your little spoon
D A D G A F#
And kiss your fingers forevermore
A D G F#
But, big spoon, you have so much to do
D A D G A D
And I have nothing ahead of me
A D G F#
You're the sun, you've never seen the night
D A D G A F#
But you hear its song from the morning birds
A D G F#
But I'm not the moon, I'm not even a star
D A D G A D
But awake at night I'll be singing to the birds
[Pre-Chorus]
G A Bm F#m G A D
Don't wait for me, I can't go
[Chorus]
D G Bm F#m G
Your mother wouldn't approve of how my mother raised me
D A
But I do, I think I do
D G Bm
And you're an All-American boy
F#m G D G A D
I guess I couldn't help trying to be your best American girl
D A (x3)
F#m G
[Verse 2]
A D
You're the one
G F#m
You're all I ever wanted
D A
I think I'll regret this
D G A Bm G A D D
[Final chorus]
G A Bm F#m G
Your mother wouldn't approve of how my mother raised me
D A
But I do, I finally do
G A Bm
And you're an All-American boy
F#m G D A D
I guess I couldn't help trying to be the best American girl
D G Bm F#m G
Your mother wouldn't approve of how my mother raised me
D G A
But I do, I think I do
[Outro]
