[Intro]
Bm E Bm E (2x)
Bm E
You hang around like the smell of ammonia
Bm E
And I'm trying to weather you out
Bm E
Is this as good as you get California
Bm E
Without a doubt
Bm E
I get a little distressed from the pressure
Bm E
I get sick about doing my best
Bm E
When you get stuck in the business of pleasure
Bm E
You're put to the test
[Chorus]
G
American dream
A
Well I can dream too
D E
They're gonna forget no matter what you do
G
American dream
A Bm E
I'm living it up for you
Bm E
Bm E
It's like you wasting away to the border
Bm E
But what if this is as good as you get
Bm E
There will be time to reflect when it' s over
Bm E
It's not over yet
Bm E
He's got everything he's ever wanted
Bm E
But he's stuck in a back limousine
Bm E
Outside the windows, they line up to tore him
Bm E
From living the dream
[Chorus]
G
American dream
A
Well I can dream too
D E
You gonna regret no matter what you do
G
American dream
A Bm
I leave it all up to you
Bm E
(oh.. la la la)
[Same pace]
Bm E
Everybody wants something better
Bm E
Everybody wants someting good
Bm E
Your know it doesn't get any better
Bm E
In Hollywood
G
American dream
A
Well I can dream too
D E
You gonna regret no matter what you do
G A
And if I can dream American too
D E
Just don't let them tell you what you gotta do
G A
Don't you ever, never no way
D E
You wanna be New York but getting stuck in LA
G A Bm
American dream, I give it all for you
[Repeat with fadeout]
Bm E
(oh.. la la la)
End.
