American Love Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[F]I'm[G] lying wide awake in bed
[Bb]My eyes are closed just like I'm dead
[F]My friends all think that I'm a bore
[C]But I don't nee[D]d them anymore
[G]I don't get up I don't go out[Bb]
I have no life to speak about
[C]It feels so good to leave
the blame [Eb]with you
That's [Dm]what [D]I do
I'm [G]going down
Come around
[Dm]Watch me when I hit the ground
[C]Give me just one fix of your
Your [Eb]sweet Amer[D]ican love
[G]I go blind
Lose my mind
[Dm]Leave the world I know behind
[C]Just to feel it one last time
[Eb]Sweet amer[F]ican love
[G]My telephone is off the hook
[Bb]My eyes are closed I'm scared to l[F]ook
I bet you're happy now you're free
[C]But what abo[D]ut poor little me[G]
I draw your picture on the wall
[Bb]My phone is dead and still your [C]call
My mama asked I told her
[Eb]I get by
[D]That's such a lie
I'm [G]going down
Come around
[Dm]Watch me when I hit the ground
[C]Give me just one fix of your
Your [Eb]sweet Amer[D]ican love
[G]I go blind
Lose my mind
[Dm]Leave the world I know behind
[C]Just to feel it one last time
My [Eb]sweet Amer[F]ican [G]love
[Gm]I've kept the thin[F]gs you gave to me
[C]The air is clear but I can't see[Gm]
And a cheerful [F]radio boasts that " Love
is in the [C]air"
But it's so full of shit
[D]A Sony is i[Gm]t?
So what [F]D'ya you have to leave me for
[C]Was it my hair, was I such a bor[Gm]e
Well you know [F]baby
That you [Eb]were always my only
[Dsus4]choice
[D](goin' down, come [G]around,
[Dm]watch me when I hit the [C]ground)
Gimme just one fix of your,
your [Eb]American love, [D]american love
[G](I go [Dm]blind, lose my mind,
leave the world I know be[C]hind)
Just [Dm]to feel [C]it one last [Eb]time[F]
[G]Oh[Bb][C][Eb][D]
[G]Dam[Bb]n You
