Well, she [E] was an American [G] girl, [A] raised up in promises
[D] She [E] couldn't help thinking that there [G] was a little more to life [A] somewhere else
It [D] was a great big world, [G] with lots of places [E] to run to
[A] And if she had the thought of trying she had one little promise she was gonna [G] keep
Oh [A] yeah,
[D] take it easy [Bm] baby, make it last [G] all night
She [A] was an [D] American girl
Well, it was [E] kinda cold that night, [G] she stood alone [A] on a balcony
[D] Yeah, she put [E] in the cards rolled by [G] Arrows for Forty-One
[A] Like waves crashing down the beach, left the one [D] desperate moment there
[G] He crept back in [E] her memory
[A] God, it's so painful, something that is so close, is still so far [G] away
Oh [A] yeah,
