| [00:35.08] |
Well she was an American girl |
| [00:39.03] |
Raised on promises |
| [00:43.07] |
She couldn't help thinking that |
| [00:46.08] |
There was a little more to life |
| [00:49.03] |
Somewhere else |
| [00:52.02] |
After all it was a great big world |
| [00:56.01] |
With lots of places to run to |
| [01:00.03] |
And if she had to die trying to |
| [01:04.06] |
One little promise she was gonna keep |
| [01:07.07] |
CHORUS |
| [01:09.05] |
Oh ya, alright |
| [01:13.05] |
Take it easy baby |
| [01:15.07] |
Make it last all night |
| [01:17.06] |
She was an American girl |
| [01:26.03] |
Well it was kind of cold that night |
| [01:29.03] |
She stood alone on a balcony |
| [01:34.02] |
She could hear the cars roll by |
| [01:37.07] |
Out on 4/41, like waves crashing on the beach |
| [01:42.08] |
And for one desperate moment there |
| [01:46.01] |
He crept back in a memory |
| [01:50.04] |
God, it's so painful |
| [01:52.03] |
Something that's so close |
| [01:55.00] |
Is still so far out of reach |
| [01:59.07] |
CHORUS |
| [02:14.06] |
(Music solo) |
| [02:49.05] |
