American Dream

• C

 C                  F                  C 
I GOT A BRAND NEW CHEVROLET OUT IN THE DRIVE 
C                               F                    G 
I GOT A THIRTY YEAR FIXED RATE MORTGAGE THAT I LIVE INSIDE 
C                           F 
I DON?T THINK I LIKE WHAT I GOT 
C                      F 
CAUSE I THINK IT?S GOT ME 
C                        F     G         C 
I GUESS I JUST WOKE UP FROM MY AMERICAN DREAM 
 
 
I GUESS MY WIFE SHE?LL WORK FOR THE STATE FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE 
WHEN ALL SHE EVER WANTED TO BE WAS A MOM AND A WIFE 
SHE TELLS ME I DON?T LOOK LIKE THE GUYS IN COSMOPOLITAN MAGAZINE 
I GUESS SHE JUST WOKE UP FROM HER AMERICAN DREAM 
 
        F 
AIN?T IT FUNNY 
        Am 
HOW THE MONEY  
     C 
DON?T ALWAYS CUT THE DEAL 
         F 
AIN?T IT STRANGE 
       Am  
HOW WE CHANGE 
        C                 G 
WHEN WE FIND WHAT?S REALLY REAL. 
 
JOHNNY LOVED TO TEACH THE KIDS IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOL 
SAID IT?S BEEN A WHOLE LOT HARDER SINCE THEY CHANGED THE RULES. 
GUNSHOTS ECHO THROUGH THE HALLS 
ANOTHER ONE FALLS 
THE LAST BELL RINGS 
AND IT WOKE HIM UP FROM HIS AMERICAN DREAM 
 
RANDY WAS A SMALL TIME HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL STAR 
BECKY GOT KNOCKED UP IN THE BACK SEAT OF HIS CAR. 
HE?S GOT A BABY THAT SCREAMS AND A BOSS THAT?S MEAN 
AND A WIFE STILL IN HER TEENS 
THEY?RE ALL WAKING HIM UP TO HIS AMERICAN DREAM 
 
CHORUS 
 
REPEAT 1ST VERSE AND END
