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