Michael Marcagi - American Romance Chords

[intro]
A  E  D  A

[verse 1]
              A
When you were young
           E
Found you a good man
                      D
And told you he was a Christian
                  A
Just like you had planned

[verse 2]
           A
Now, your dreams
                        E
And this American romance
                            D
Is looking more like your parents
                                  A
And you know, damn well, how that ends

[chorus]
D    F#m      E
  Whatever you choose
D    F#m         E
  It's all up to you
D         F#m              E
  And the first thing I'll do
N.C.          A  E  D  A
Won't be for you

[verse 3]
         A
Driving home
                      E
Don't wanna feel the tension
                  D
It cried out for redemption
                   A
You know it's too late

[verse 4]
         A
And you scream out
                        E
"Maybe it's all just another phase
                       D
But I only see you on holidays"
                       A
How did it end up this way?

[chorus]
D    F#m      E
 Whatever you choose
D    F#m         E
 It's all up to you
D         F#m              E
  And the first thing I'll do
N.C.           A
Won't be for you

[verse 5]
A                E
Drove my car to leave this disaster
D             A
I've mistaken your love as laughter
A                 E
And California's colder than last year
D                 A
Far from you, so, maybe, I'll stay here
A                E
Drove my car to leave this disaster
D             A
I've mistaken your love as laughter
A                 E
And California's colder than last year
D                 A
Far from you, so, maybe, I'll stay here
