American Avenue

G Em  C G


[Verse 1]

G             Em
You're my winding wheel
         C      G
I'm your highwayman
         Em
Got that all-in feel
C             G
Hope it never ends

                        Em
You're my forty-mile an hour breeze
C           G
Wave makin' hand
                     Em
We were looking for forever
Em
But now here we are together
        C       G
In the promised land


[Pre-Chorus]

G                 Em
We found freedom, we found us
         C               G
We found crazy, we found love


[Chorus]

G
In a cherry red truck
          Em
Crossing dotted white lines
     C          G
On American Avenue
                    D
It's like Heaven on Earth

                       Em
Girl, the way that you shine
         C             G
I'm just taking in the view
       Em
It's a five-star dream
           C          G
You in the passenger seat

                D
In a cherry red truck
         Em
Crossing dotted white lines
                C          G
Blue skies on American Avenue


[Verse 2]

           Em            C        G
It's about the ride, not where we get
           Em          C     G
Playlist 1999, all the radio hits
            Em                    C                 G
Baby, let's just drive and follow all the turns and twists
                       Em
I could stay like this forever, two seater, us together
          C            G
While the whole world spins


[Pre-Chorus]

G                          Em
We found freedom, we found us
         C               G
We found crazy, we found love


[Chorus]

G
In a cherry red truck
                      Em
Crossing dotted white lines
     C          G
On American Avenue
                    D
It's like Heaven on Earth

                       Em
Girl, the way that you shine
         C             G
I'm just taking in the view
                 Em
It's a five-star dream
           C         G
You in the passenger seat

                D
In a cherry red truck
          Em
Crossing dotted white lines
                   C          G
Blue skies on on American Avenue (American Avenue)
