[Intro]
Bm E Bm E (2x)
Bm E
You hang around like the smell of ammonia
Bm E
And I'm trying to weather you out
Bm E
Is this as good as you get California
Bm E
Without a doubt
Bm E
I get a little distressed from the pressure
Bm E
I get sick about doing my best
Bm E
When you get stuck in the business of pleasure
Bm E
You're put to the test
[Chorus]
G
American dream
A
Well I can dream too
D E
They're gonna forget no matter what you do
G
American dream
A Bm E
I'm living it up for you
Bm E
Bm E
It's like you wasting away to the border
Bm E
But what if this is as good as you get
Bm E
There will be time to reflect when it' s over
Bm E
It's not over yet
Bm E
He's got everything he's ever wanted
Bm E
But he's stuck in a back limousine
Bm E
Outside the windows, they line up to tore him
Bm E
From living the dream
[Chorus]
G
