F#m G
Lately I've felt so pathetic that it burns
F#m G
I can't sweat it cause I know I'm gonna work this out
F#m G
Baby just sit back and forget about the world
F#m G
And how they always doubt that we can make it worth our while
F#m
I hear all the words you never say
G
And you can always walk away
F#m G A
'Cause I can see it in your vacant smile
D A
We got caught up in American
Bm G A
Holding onto hope there and back again
D G
Taking back what's lost
Bm A D
Just to find it all buried in American dreams
F#m G
Oh dream dream dream
F#m G
Maybe we can start a scene or just screw all day
F#m G
We can run away, us together, find a home
Better weather, or
F#m G A
We can just stay here for a while
D A
We got caught up in American
Bm G A
Holding onto hope there and back again
D A
Taking back what's lost
Bm A G
Just to find it all buried underneath this weight
Bm A F#m
I’m starting to believe this is what you hate
Bm A D
And nothing's gonna work out the way it seems
G A G
But you’ll always be my American dream, dream, dream
F#m G A
Maybe we can start a scene or just screw all day
D A
We got caught up in American
Bm G
Holding onto hope there and back again
D A
Taking back what's lost
Bm A D
Just to find it all buried in American dreams
D A
We got caught up in American
G A D
And American dreams
G
Taking back what's lost
Bm A D
Just to find it all buried in American dreams
