[D]
I was [A] there in Memphis the day after Elvis died, but I never went to Graceland, cause
I didn't want to miss my ride.
[G] I've been down in Louisiana, spent the night in New Orleans, [D] but I never did sleep well
enough [Em] to dream the [G] American [D] dream.
Flew into New York City, another face in the crowd, they took me in a limousine to
an office up above the clouds.
They [G] said one and one is three, nothing's as it seems.
[D] Well I didn't sleep at all that night, so [C] I missed the [G] American [D] dream.
I drove through freezing winter, through the middle of the great hard land.
Spent my nights in truck stops, my days with the country bands.

Rolling on the vape break, sleeping in my jeans, [D] but I don't think dreaming home [C] is
the [G] American [D]
dream.

[D]
Well I've been down to Hollywood, well I've been to LA, where people shook my hand, well
