E A B x2
[Verse 1]
E
You took me home on an Ontario night
A B
Out past the glimmer of your bicycle light
E
We drank red, red whiskey from a coffee cup
A B
Those blue and white eyes shined like movies
[Pre-Chorus]
A
But oh, right here
B
Through the night
E
The stripe of your shirt
Gbm
The stars in your eyes
[Chorus]
A
I think I'm falling
B
I think I'm falling
E
In American love
A
I think I'm falling
B
I think I'm falling
E
In American love
A
[Bridge]
Dbm E A
The northern lights were like fireworks up above us
Dbm E
And the morning gave proof that you'd still be there
A Dbm E
To hold my hand as the bombs burst all around us
{Chorus]
A
I think I'm falling
B
I think I'm falling
E
In American love
[Verse 2]
E
Hollywood warned me you'd be comin' around
A B
And Hollywood pumped me full of pictures and sounds
E
But in the blue blue ocean rises up too high
A B
You and me, we got that northern shelter
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Oh, right here
B
Through the night
E
The stripe of your shirt
Gbm
The stars in your eyes
[Chorus]
A
I think I'm falling
B
I think I'm falling
E
In American love
A
(American love)
[Bridge]
Dbm E A
I ain't looking for a god damn institution (American love)
Dbm E A
Come on darlin, just prove that you'll still be there (American love)
Dbm E B
Oh, I know we got some cracks in the constitution (American love)
A B
But we can start the world over (American love)
A B
We can start the world over (American love)
Oh, let's start the world over again
E A B x2
[Verse 3]
E
Some buildings rise, and some buildings will fall
A B
Ain't no one in this world who can look after them all
E
But in our bright white house we sing the man in black
A B
Playing songs he knew would live forever
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Oh, right here
B
Through the night
E
The stripe of your shirt
Gbm
The stars in your eyes
[Chorus]
A
I think I'm falling
B
I think I'm falling
E
In American love
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Oh, right here
B
At the end of the night
E
Like an old movie
Gbm
It turned out all right
[Chorus]
A
I think I'm falling
B
I think I'm falling
E
In American love
