ALL AMERICAN GIRL

Melissa Etheridge

Song's not too difficult and sounds great when you rip it on an electric -

good for acoustic, too. Listen to recording for right rythyms. Chords: E

(022100), A (002220), D (000232), B5 (x244xx), A5 (x022xx), C#m (x46650),

Dsus2 (xx0230). Have fun. -Meg

Intro: EADA  EADA  EADA  EADA

She (B5)wakes up in the morning

with a (A5)pain in her jet black (E)head (ADA)

(B5)- decaf coffee in her (A5)hand

and a Marboro (E)Red(ADA)

She (C#M) drives down to the office

in her (A5)Japanese car

With her (E)radio blasting,

..he thinks of takin it too far

But to(Dsus2)day she'll pay the bills

She won't (A5)think about the thrills

That pass (B5)away

CHORUS:

She's an all(EADA)-American (EADA)girl

An all(EADA)-American (EADA)girl

And she'll live (A5)and die

in this man's (B5)world

An all-American (EADA)girl (EADA)

Her (B5)eyes are black as leather

and her (A5)hair is killer red

How (B5)could she keep the baby (A5)

when she can barely keep her (E)head (ADA)

She don't (C#m)owe nobody nothing

cause (A5)she ain't on the street

But these (E)drinks are gettin heavy

and the tips are getting weak

And (Dsus2)she don't understand

why she can't (A5)crawl out of the sand

And break (B5)away

CHORUS

Her (C#m)lover never came home

It's (A5)half past three

To(E)day her best friend told her

He's HIV

Somethings (Dsus2)got to give somewhere

Forcing (A5)circles into squares

She keeps pushing (B5)on

CHORUS

It doesn't sound quite the right key when you play with the recording but

sounds authentic on its own. Please forward any corrections to
