American Love

  Em 
She doesn't panic from the warning signs 

She's hiding under foreign cotton and sheets of ice 

Until I come around and clear her mind 
 D4                                           Em 
But I know who you are, so why don't we start again 
  

                      D 
It was colder by the pond 
                           Em 
So she wore a pair of my gloves 
                     D 
Then she flew me to Milan 
     C 
She calls me her american love 
D         C 
American love 
D         C 
American love 
          D 
American love 
  

Em 
A bay-and-gable in a small lake town 
D 
She wants to buy it from her  

Dad just to tear it down 

Then tell her uncles they can have it now 
 D4                                   Em 
But we're still coming by, just for the fireworks 
  

                     D

If I belonged to anyone 
    Em7                  C 
I'd choose a blonde and have a son 
    C               D 
And dress him up in tennis shoes 
    Em7           C 
And play along until he's good
