American Tune

Written by Paul Simon

	  		
C          F     C   G7     C   G  E7      Am  
Am Many's the time I've been mistaken and many times confused 
C            F  C  G7   C   G   C Bdim7 Am    E7        Am 
Yes and I've often felt forsaken and certainly misused 
C9         F   G         F   C             F  C  G  G#dim7  Am   A7 
Aw, but I'm alright, I'm alright, I'm just weary to my bones 
D7         G7                     C  G7  D       G 
Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant 
C    F C  G      E7 Am Dm7 C   G13      C 
So far away from home, so far away from home 
C                  F    C     G7   C      G    E7 
And I don't know a soul who's not been battered 
             Am            E7           Am 
I don't have a friend that's feels at ease 
C              F     C       G7 C      G     C Bdim7  Am   E7          Am 
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered or driven to it's knees 
C9         F   G         F   C            F     C  G  G#dim7  Am   A7 
Aw, but it's alright, it's alright for we lived so well so long 
D7    G7                  C    G7       D         G 
Still when I think of the road we're travelin' on  
C   F C      C  G        E7 Am      Dm7          C  G13          C 
I wonder what's gone wrong, I can't help but wonder what's gone wrong 
C 
And I dreamed I was dying 
         G      G7        Am    D#dim 
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly 
             G7       F C                G                                 G7                  C 
And looking back down on me smiled reassuringly     and I dreamed I was flying 
C                  F     C   G    C         G 
For we come on the ship they call Mayflower 
E7              Am        E7           Am 
We come on the ship that sailed the moon 
C           F C  G    C  G         C  Bo7  Am       E7         Am 
We come in the ages most uncertain hours and sing an American Tune 
C9              F   G         F   C          F  C  G E7 Am 
Aw, but it's alright, it's alright you can't be forever blessed 
D7       G                  C  G7 D       G 
Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day 
C         F    C  G            E7 Am      Dm7  C      G13     G7   C 
And I'm trying to get some rest, that's all I'm trying to get some rest 
C  
And I dreamed I was flying. 
     G       G7           Am        D#dim 
And high up above my eyes could clearly see 
       G7        C              G                             G7                   C 
The Statue of Liberty  sailing away to sea       and I dreamed I was flying
