[D] Well she was an A[E7]merican girl
|
|
[G] Raised on [A]promises
|
|
[D] She couldn't help [E7]thinking that there was
|
|
A [G]little more to life [A]somewhere else
|
|
|
|
After all it was a [D]great big world
|
|
[G] With lots of places to [Em]run to
|
|
[A]And if she had to die tryin' she had one little promise she was gonna keep

|
|
Out on [G]four forty one like [A]waves crashing on the beach
|
|
|
|
And for one desperate [D]moment there
|
|
[G]He crept back in her [Em]memory
|
|
[A]God it's so painful when something that's so close is still so far to reach
