D
Ooh yeah
She was just an American girl
Oh, but how she could move me
                               Em            A
When we were but two strangers in the night
         D
She was out of sight

And the music kept drawing her near
And her body was swaying
                            Em           A
As if silently saying "I'll be with you
            D
Before the night is through"

Chorus:
G                           A        D
And her eyes where like a starlight
                       G    Em
Her skin was soft as snow
                 A            D
She looked like heaven to me
G                  A         D
And if only she'd loved me
                         Hm   Em
Well I guess I'll never know
                 A
But I'll always love you
          D
American girl

Em      A
          D
American girl

And the juke box was starting to play
And we danced till the night turned to day
With the same old familiar song
The guitar moves along
Oh, move along

D           Em  A  D

Chorus

Hm                G
When darkness surrounds me
A        D
I wanna die
Em               A
And no one have time
           D
To ask me why
They don't even try
Hm                 G          A
Through all those rainy days
               D
She helped me fly
     Em
But darling
                  A
I can't, I can't fly

Now I've lost my American girl
As I sit in my room
When the memories haunt me through yesterday
She's so far away
But the music is lingering on
And I find myself hearing a tune
Of the same old familiar song
It goes on and on and on

Chorus

Em                A                  D
Yes, I'll always love you, American girl 
Em           A                  D
I'll always love you, American girl
