[C]Don't you like A[F]merican m[G]usic, b[C]aaaa[F]byyy[G]y[etc...]
I want you to hold me, I want your arms around me

Did you do too many drugs? I did too many drugs
Did you do too many drugs too, baby

It reminds me of [C]you, it re[F]minds me of y[C]ou
[A]Oh-[G]oh, [A]oh-[G]oh, [A]oh-[G]oh
I need a date to the prom, would you like to come along
Nobody will go to the prom with me, baby
They didn't like American music, they never heard American music
They didn't know the music was in my soul, baby
You were born too soon, I was born too late
But every time I look at that ugly lake, It reminds me of meeee
(d'you like [F]American music) It reminds me of [C]meeee

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
