American Dream Acordes

MKTO - American Dream
 
capo at 3rd to make it sound right but you can sing it lower and make it easier on the
vocals if you take off the capo if you want :)
 
verse:
Cadd9         G                D
We broke down trying to leave town
Em/D          G                Cadd9
Flying down the road to change
Cadd9         G                D
We were born to run, Cali here we come
Em/D          G                Cadd9
Escape from nowhere USA
 
Cadd9         G                D
Say goodbye to white picket fences
 
Say hello to palm trees and Benzes
Em/D           G               Cadd9
They say you gotta fall to have it all
 
Yeah
Cadd9         G                D
We don’t want two kids and a wife
 
I don’t want a job I just want a life
Em/D           G               Cadd9
Sometimes the underdogs rise
                         D
And the mighty fall
 
Chorus:
Cadd9         G                D
 
This ain’t the same summer song that you used to know
Em/D          G                Cadd9
‘Cause Jack left Diane thirty years ago
Cadd9         G                D
The world is spinning too fast for you and me
Em/D          G                Cadd9
So tell me whatever happened to the American dream

‘Cause this right here is a twisted paradise
