♫ Intro:

A E  A  B E


♫ Verse 1:
E                  A
Wake up again in a old motel, is it somewhere different I can’t tell
B           A           E
Every set of curtains opens to the open road
                  A
And I’m missing you like hell, this van is like a prison cell
  B                 A        E
And I know you have gone with her and I can’t go back home

♫ Chorus:
          C#m7    A E
I’ve been American dreaming, oooo
       C#m7    A E
I’m American dreaming, oooo
       C#m7    A
I’m American dreaming, ooo
       B       E
But, I never seem to get no rest


♫ Verse 2:
E                 A
I should get some rest today then pack my bags, be on my way
  B                A           E
But my minds always working on the way it could have been
                 A
Trying to tow a tight rope line, find a way to feel half fine
B                  A       E
Without drowning in this wine, and calling you again


♫ Chorus:
          C#m7    A E
I’ve been American dreaming, oooo
       C#m7    A E
I’m American dreaming, oooo
       C#m7    A
I’m American dreaming, ooo
       B       E
But, I never seem to get no rest


♫ Interlude:
A E  A  B E


♫ Verse 3:
E                     A
I’m losing touch with all my friends, the ones who remind me who I am
B                   A         E
If I could just get back home to pick up where we left off
                  A
I’d take better care of myself, I’d stop drinking from the bottom shelf
  B                 A         E
But my old wheels keep spinning and I cannot make them stop


♫ Chorus:
          C#m7    A E
I’ve been American dreaming, oooo
       C#m7    A E
I’m American dreaming, oooo
       C#m7    A
I’m American dreaming, ooo
       B       E
But, I never seem to get no rest


♫ Verse 4:
E                 A
So, I get back home and try to be someone that’s something like me
B                 A        E
But, I’ve forgotten all my angels out here in the wind
                A
Sitting out here with my mind I meditate to pass the time
B                     A     C#m
But there’s something inside setting sail all over again


♫ Interlude:
A E  A  B E
A E   A
Ooo, ooo
 B  E
Ooo, ooo

I’m American dreaming, oooo
       C#m7    A
I’m American dreaming, ooo
