Lyrics – This American Life

This American Life
Written by:  Tim Kirkner

A                               E

It’s this American life

G                                         D
and your an American girl
don’t know how to blow your mind
something we’ll have to find out over time, over time, over time

Givin in to the crashing waves
all the bad noise from today
the parking lots and dying cars
that take  my mind so far away from you….

(Chorus) 

Think of all the roads we’ll corss
knowing all who wander are not lost
just follow what you know is near
and let it go, take it slow

(Bridge)

F                              G               D

The words of poems on paper
your eyes they tell the truth
please be sweet to me
and I’ll be sweet too

Chorus

Spinning minds laid to rest
Fortunes full of no regret
Coins tossed that never land

let us be what we want to be
in the crowd we’re all alone
for a few long minutes free–free

Chorus
