Verse: D E7 Well she was an American girl. G A Raised on promises D E7 She couldn't help thinking that there was G A a little more to life somewhere else D After all it was a great big world G Em with lots of places to run to A And if she had to die tryin' she had one little promise she was gonna keep Chorus: G A D Bm G Oh yeah, allright, take it easy baby make it last all night A D She was an American girl Verse: D E7 Well it was kinda cold that night G A She stood alone on the balcony D E7 Yeh, she could hear the cars roll by, G A out on four-fortyone like waves crashing on the beach D And for one des'rate moment there G Em he crept back in her memory A God it's so painful when something that's so close is still so far to reach.

The lyrics are wrong at the end of verse one. It’s “But she had to die trying to achieve that one little promise she was gonna keep.”
Transpose to -2 and use D instead of D7
If it’s hard to do a transition between d g and a do g like this do a Bm then put your middle finger on the e string on the third threat
