[Intro 1]
[D][A][G][D][A][Bm][G]
[D]

[Verse 1]
I left my [A]be
st friend[C#m]s back in Tuls[G]a
Every [Bm]city we called [F#m]home,
down [G]the line
Lord, I feel like some kind [D]of gypsy
Moved [F#m]on by the lad[G]ders you climb
[A]

[Verse 2]
[D]I can't count the
[A]gardens I've [G]planted
And [Bm]left me for [F#m]one flower bl[G]oom
With the pages of my life,
I wrap my [D]own dreams
Like [F#m]crystal in [G]yesterday's [A]news

[Verse 3]
'Cause we're [D]chasing the
[G]American [A]dream yeah
Every [D]time you move [G]up, we move [A]on
[Bm]Back and forth [A]across this land
[D]Living out the [G]company man
[D]Spendin' our moonlit [A]nights chasing
[Bm]the [G]dawn

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][A][G][D]

[Verse 4]
First thing people [A]ask is
where you [Bm]come [G]from
Why [Bm]should a simple ques
[F#m]tion be so h[G]ard?
I've spent my life tearin' [D]roots up
And [F#m]digging new [G]holes in my heart
[A]

[Verse 5]
[D]
I've learned to [A]roll with [G]the punches
And [Bm]pick off the [F#m]dust that we've t[G]ossed
We got everything we never had as [D]lovers
And [F#m]money can't [G]buy what it's [A]cost

[Verse 6]
'Cause we're [D]chasing the
[G]American [A]dream now
Every [D]time you move [G]up, we move [A]on
[Bm]Back and forth [A]across this land
[D]Living out the [G]company man
[D]Spendin' our moonlit [A]nights
chasing [G]the dawn

[Verse 7]
[D](Chasing the [G]American
[A]dream) yeah
Oh, we're [D]chasing the [G]American [A]dream
We keep [D]chasing the [G]American [A]dream,
oh
[D]Chasing the [G]American [A]dream (chasing the
American dream)
Oh, we're [D]chasing
[G]the American dream
