The American Dream

• C9

C9    G         D 
I was born in Coastal Maine 
     C9      G          D 
Then moved away south of LA 
C9    G   D 
San Diego knows my name (yo, what up Zach?) 
    C9    G       D 
But now I live in cars and planes 

C9    G           D 
These long drives long flights 
  C9       G           D 
I wouldn't trade for anything 

G               D                 Em7 
Everybody wanna piece Americana (U.S.A.) 
              C9 
But she don't come so easily 
G                      D 
All the kids are gonna do what they wanna 
   Em7 
Oh oh 
                C9 
And when we get older we can sing 
G 
Oh whoa whoa 
D 
Oh whoa oh 
       Em7                         C9 
We all around the world living The American Dream yeah 
G 
Oh whoa whoa 
D 
Oh whoa oh 
       Em7                         C9 
We all around the world living The American Dream 

C9     G          D 
Almost died in Carolina 
C9          G          D 
Crashed the van, it caught on fire 
               C9       G           D 
If you've been down and out throw up your lighters 
       C9      G      D 
We're a little older, little brighter 

C9   G      D 
Time goes by, time flies 
   C9        G          D 
So don't you wait for anything 

G               D                 Em7 
Everybody wanna piece Americana (U.S.A.) 
              C9 
But she don't come so easily 
G                      D

C9                     G 
Most of my friends got college loans 
D 
Sending them my love from the road 
    C9             G 
Got souvenirs from 50 states 
D 
Little magnets that say my name 
     C9      G 
Am I famous? Eh, not quite. 
    D 
But shameless? You got that right. 
  C9                   G 
A toast you your wife, toast to your life 
D 
Toast to the night, start it off right 

G 
Oh whoa whoa 
D 
Oh whoa oh 
       Em7                         C9
