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