     she couldn't help thinkin' there was a little more to life     somewhere else     
after all it was a
D                G                         Em
great big world     with lots of places to run to
A

D                      E7                  G                      A
     Well it was kinda cold that night     she stood alone on the balcony

     Yeah she could hear the cars roll by     out on 441     like waves crashin' on the 
beach     and for one desperate
D             G                     Em
moment there   he crept back in her memory
A
God it's so painful when something that's so close is still     so     far out of reach

     she was          an American girl
