Verse 1:
         C
American Dream
     F                         C
It's real, it's somethin' I've seen
    F                 G
And it all began as a no name band
       F                        C   G
With a fiddle and rock and roll
              C
And cigarette smoke
          F                          C
She's the devil, but she's someone I know
    F                          G
She whispers to me through the laughter
          F                           C   G
And every now and then I just give in

Chorus:
            C     F
Whiskey and water
                  C       F
And girls without fathers
             Am
A headache tomorrow
       Am                   G
A Hail Mary to make me feel sane
     F                         G                   C     F
What happens, dear Mother, the day I forget how to pray?
       C    F
How to pray

Verse 2:
            C
We shot the arrows
   F                          C
We chased 'em down like old vaqueros
   F                              G
We drove through the night in the darkness
          F                          C    G
Until the cold was just too much to take
            C
It broke ya down
    F                            C
The thought of us racin' through towns
      F                            G
But I swore it would just last the season
        F                             C
But God knows that winter's long gone
          G
It's long gone

Chorus:
            C     F
Whiskey and water
                  C       F
And girls without fathers
                  Am
When she leaves tomorrow
       Am                   G
A Hail Mary to make me feel sane
     F                         G                   C     F
What happens, dear Mother, the day I forget how to pray?
       C    F
How to pray

Bridge:
         G                         F
And that next town's lights get to shinin' so bright
      C           Em         Fadd2
But I find myself feelin' at home
              Fadd2
And I'm sorry

Chorus:
            C     F
Whiskey and water
                  C       F
And girls without fathers
                 Am
When we leave tomorrow
       Am                   G
A Hail Mary to make me feel sane
           F                        G              C          F
But please help me, dear Mother, to never forget how to pray?
       C    F   C
How to pray
