It’s a marriage made in heaven so her mom is fond of saying
C D7 G7
So her sister caught the bouquet and your dad gave her away
C F
And she didn’t wear her blue jeans for the first time in ages
C G7 C
And she looked just like a vision so she heard them all say
F
But she settles into marriage believing it forever
C D7 G7
But somehow things looked different once the feeling’s gone
C F
In time love turns to anger and then he turned to silence
C G7 C
So she turns to some old boyfriend when he’s not at home
F C G7 C
But Old Glory is still waving down at Central High School
F C G7
Where love still means I love you till the end of the world
F C G7 C
And God is still in heaven but she hopes that He’s not watching
F C G7 C
As time is slowing changing that All American Girl
F
It’s a marriage of convenience but she keeps it from her mother
C D7 G7
Cause by the time she’s reached twenty she’s learned to tell a lie
C F
From the brandy in the cupboard from rendezvous with lovers
C G7 C
She’s learned to make excuses and she’s learned to compromise
F C G7 C
But Old Glory is still waving down at Central High School
F C G7
Where love still means I love you till the end of the world
F C G7 C
And God is still in heaven but she hopes that He’s not watching

As time is slowing changing that All American Girl
