| C | F |



🎸 Verse 1:
     G
She got hair as gold as Kansas wheat
   G
Her body moves like Bourbon street
  F
In New Orleans, so wild and free
     G
She's a California red sunset
 G
Stars in her eyes, stripes on her dress
    F
Every summer night feels like the fourth of July

🎸 Chorus:
    C
She's American
                 F
Making my world better than it's ever been
                 G
One part Norma Jean and one part Marilyn
                 F
She's making me fall in love with everything American


🎸 Verse 2:
     C
She's a small town smile, a little white church
 C
"Born To Run" on a faded T-shirt
F
All I know is I'm at home when I'm with her
     G
Yeah
I grew up singing Eagles songs
   G
Sometimes I wonder what took so long
  F
To feel enough to give the best of my love
    G
She's New York pretty all dressed up
    G
But a southern belle in the back of her truck
   F
On an old dirt road, she's where I wanna go
