[Verse 1]
(Okay)
C#m C#m/D#
Too little to do for too long and
E E/G# A A/G#
Too little of you for my songs to be anything but lonely
F#m G#
In a couple weeks, you'll own me
C#m C#m/D#
Too tired to sleep, good morning
E E/G#
And I'm too wired to heed the warnin'
A A/G#
That there's danger in the summer
F#m G#
The calm before the thunder
[Chorus]
C#m
I'm an American cliché
Emaj7
Missin' a girl in a French café
Amaj7 A A/G#
I say, "God damn, you're beautiful"
F#m G#
You blush and duck out of frame
C#m
I'm an American cliché
Emaj7
Missin' a girl in a French café
Amaj7 G#
I say, "How'd I get along so long without you"
C#m
And you say, "Same"

Graveyard, Jim Morrison, Forever
E E/G#
In my arms, they'll have to bury us together
A A/G#
'Cause I'm never gonna let you go
F#m G#
Uh-oh, uh-oh
C#m C#m/D# E
Missed my flight, makin' love in the morning
E/G#
While everybody else was boarding
A A/G#
They love to say they told you so
F#m G#
I know, I know, I know
[Chorus]

I'm an American cliché

C#m C#m/D#
Come on over now, you're one layover down?
C#m
No one that we know around
C#m/D# A
Don't want the city without you
G#
I want you
C#m
We'll go all over town
C#m C#m/D#
No one that we know around
C#m
Can't say I'm sober now
C#m/D# A
Do something I'm not allowed to
G#
I want you
