C F
I set out like Kerouac, in my American car,
G C F G
Carrying a dream and a road map, deep in my American heart,
C F
But where's them mountain majesties? Where's those waves of grain?
G C F Gsus4 G
Billboards from sea to shining sea, man, it ain't the same!
F C/E Gsus4 G
I've been searching for the promised land,
F C/E Dm7 G7
But it's just another neon come - on... roadside stand,
C F
Little tin toys that fall apart, that's all they got here,
G C F
Come all this way to find my heart,
Gsus4 G C (Cadd9) C (Cadd9) F (Dm/F) F G
All I get is sou - ve - nirs!

They got Mount Rushmore on a cup, everybody needs one of those,

For a dollar more they'll fill up, you can drink out of Lincoln's nose,

G C F Gsus4 G
Sooner or later, mark my words, they're gonna get you!

C F
Baby, I believed in you, thought you believed in me,
G C F G
I thought we had a love that's true, not a close fac - simile,
C F
I don't want your dime store ring, it turns my finger green,
G C F Gsus4 G
I don't want your dime store love, I want the real thing!
