[Verse 1]
(Okay)
G#m G#m/A#
Too little to do for too long and
B B/D# E E/D#
Too little of you for my songs to be anything but lonely
C#m D#
In a couple weeks, you'll own me
G#m G#m/A#
Too tired to sleep, good morning
B B/D#
And I'm too wired to heed the warnin'
E E/D#
That there's danger in the summer
C#m D#
The calm before the thunder
[Chorus]
G#m
I'm an American cliché
Bmaj7
Missin' a girl in a French café
Emaj7 E E/D#
I say, "God damn, you're beautiful"
C#m D#
You blush and duck out of frame
G#m
I'm an American cliché
Bmaj7
Missin' a girl in a French café
Emaj7 D#
I say, "How'd I get along so long without you"
G#m
And you say, "Same"
[Verse 2]
G#m G#m/B G#m G#m/A#
G#m G#m/A#
Graveyard, Jim Morrison, Forever
B B/D#
In my arms, they'll have to bury us together
E E/D#
'Cause I'm never gonna let you go
C#m D#
Uh-oh, uh-oh
G#m G#m/A# B
Missed my flight, makin' love in the morning
B/D#
While everybody else was boarding
E E/D#
They love to say they told you so
C#m D#
I know, I know, I know
[Chorus]
G#m G#m/A#
I'm an American cliché

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

I'm an American cliché
