American Dreamer

[Intro] B  G#m  E  B

                 G#m         E         B
Think of all the things that money can buy
               G#m            E                  B
A ranch in the mountains and a pleasure for your eye
E          B                      E                 B
Then maybe think of things that a dollar bill won't bring
E               B                 E           F#     B    E  B
Like someone to hold you close and a song for you to sing

                  G#m                   E             B
And then think of all the years that it takes to be a fool
                     G#m                            E              B
Like the lessons you learn in a lifetime, like your lifetime was a school
G#m               E                      B
And then think of things that don't turn out what they seem
         G#m                  E              F#     B     G#m  E  B
Like the love you thought you owned in the American dream

                                  E                    B
The American dreamer, sometimes a thinker, sometimes a schemer
    E                          B
Sometimes a child, sometimes a wise man
  G#m         E          B
A lonely sole, a great extremer
     E            F#             B       G#m E B
But, none the less, the American Dreamer
