[Intro]
G D G A D
[Verse 1]
D
Wake up again in a old
motel,
G
is it somewhere different
I can’t tell
A G
Every set of curtains opens
D
to the open road
And I’m missing you like
hell,
G
this van is like a prison
cell
A
And I know you have
gone with her and
G D
I can’t go back home
[Chorus]
I’ve been American
Bm7 G D
dreaming, oooo
Bm7
I’m American dreaming,
G D
oooo
Bm7
I’m American dreaming,
G
ooo
A
But, I never seem to
D
get no rest

[Verse 2]
D
I should get some rest
today then
G
pack my bags, be on
my way
A
But my minds always
working
G
on the way it could
D
have been
Trying to tow a tight
rope
G
line, find a way
to feel half fine
A
Without drowning in
this
G
wine, and calling you
D
again
[Chorus]
Bm7
I’ve been American dreaming,
G D
oooo
Bm7 G D
I’m American dreaming, oooo
Bm7 G
I’m American dreaming, ooo
A D
But, I never seem to get no
rest
[Interlude]
G D G A D
[Verse 3]
D
I’m losing touch with all
G
my friends, the ones who
remind me who I am
A
If I could just get back
home
G
to pick up where we left
D
off
I’d take better care of
myself,
G
I’d stop drinking from
the
bottom shelf
A
But my old wheels keep
spinning
G
and I cannot make them
D
stop
[Chorus]
Bm7
I’ve been American dreaming,
G D
oooo
Bm7 G D
I’m American dreaming, oooo
Bm7 G
I’m American dreaming, ooo
A D
But, I never seem to get no
rest
[Verse 4]
D
So, I get back home and
G
try to be someone that’s
something like me
A
But, I’ve forgotten all my
G D
angels out here in the wind
Sitting out here with my mind
G
I meditate to pass the time
A
But there’s something inside
G Bm
setting sail all over again
[Interlude]

But, I never seem to get no
rest
