    [Intro]
G D  G  A D
 
 
[Verse 1]
D                                   G
Wake up again in a old motel, is it somewhere different I can’t tell
A                     G                     D
Every set of curtains opens to the open road
                                    G
And I’m missing you like hell, this van is like a prison cell
    A                                 G               D
And I know you have gone with her and I can’t go back home
 
 
[Chorus]
                   Bm7        G D
I’ve been American dreaming, oooo
             Bm7        G D
I’m American dreaming, oooo
             Bm7        G
I’m American dreaming, ooo
             A            D
But, I never seem to get no rest
 
 
[Verse 2]
D                                 G
I should get some rest today then pack my bags, be on my way
    A                              G                    D
But my minds always working on the way it could have been
                                 G
Trying to tow a tight rope line, find a way to feel half fine
A                                  G            D
Without drowning in this wine, and calling you again
 
 
[Chorus]
                   Bm7        G D
I’ve been American dreaming, oooo
             Bm7        G D
I’m American dreaming, oooo
             Bm7        G
I’m American dreaming, ooo
             A            D
But, I never seem to get no rest
 
 
[Interlude]
G D  G  A D
 
 
[Verse 3]
D                                         G
I’m losing touch with all my friends, the ones who remind me who I am
A                                     G                D
If I could just get back home to pick up where we left off
                                    G
I’d take better care of myself, I’d stop drinking from the bottom shelf
    A                                 G                D
But my old wheels keep spinning and I cannot make them stop
 
 
[Chorus]
                   Bm7        G D
I’ve been American dreaming, oooo
             Bm7        G D
I’m American dreaming, oooo
             Bm7        G
I’m American dreaming, ooo
             A            D
But, I never seem to get no rest
 
 
[Verse 4]
D                                 G
So, I get back home and try to be someone that’s something like me
A                                 G               D
But, I’ve forgotten all my angels out here in the wind
                                G
Sitting out here with my mind I meditate to pass the time
A                                         G         Bm
But there’s something inside setting sail all over again
 
 
[Interlude]
G D  G  A D
G D    G
Ooo, ooo
  A   D
Ooo, ooo
 
 
[Out-Chorus]

             Bm7        G
I’m American dreaming, ooo
             A            D
But, I never seem to get no rest
                 Bm7        G D
Oh, I’m American dreaming, oooo
             Bm7        G D
I’m American dreaming, oooo
             Bm7        G
I’m American dreaming, ooo
             A            D
But, I never seem to get no rest
