American Love

Em
She doesn't panic from the warning signs
Em
She's hiding under foreign cotton and sheets of ice
Em
Until I come around and clear her mind
Dsus4                                         Em
But I know who you are, so why don't we start again

[Chorus]

                     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

[Verse]

Em
A bay-and-gable in a small lake town
D
She wants to buy it from her dad just to tear it down
Em
Then tell her uncles they can have it now
Dsus4                                   Em
But we're still coming by, just for the fireworks

[Chorus]

                     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

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

   C             D
If I belonged to anyone
    Em7                  C
I'd choose a blonde and have a son
    C                   D
And teach him things to get him by
    Em7              C
The city girls will never bite

   C             D
If I belonged to anyone
    Em7                  D
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
