American Shoes

≣≣
Tone: [A]
Verse:
[A]You said I'll [Gbm]come back[D]back, I'll come back for y[A]you my [Gbm]love, [D]wait for me
[A]You said you're the [Gbm]only, y[D]you've been the only o[A]one I [Gbm]love, [D]and love believes [A]
 
Chorus:
[Gbm]But love is a bir[D]bird that you [A]kept in your [E]coat, [Gbm]warm u[D]until it [A]died in the [E]dark
And [Gbm]death is the l[D]ove of what h[A]urts you the m[E]ost
So you d[D]drink your day away till you're warm as paradise [A]
[A]I'm not [Abm]hurt I'm [Gbm]broken, but I called [D]to say I'm f[A]fine
[A]And I heard [Abm]you had an[Gbm]another love, [D]but I'd love you to think I don't min[A]mind
[A]The baby in your [Abm]arms ain't [Gbm]mine, but I [D]made believe as though it wa[A]was
[A]And I didn't mean to [Abm]call this l[Gbm]late but I think I'm in l[D]love With the thought of us
 
Verse:
[A]So you drink your day away till the liquor in your mouth laughs,
[Gbm]And mirrors paint you beautiful like older photographs,
But we grow, [D]we grow old, even this won't last[A]last
[A]No one understands, no one cares at all
[Gbm]And they're tearing down our sacred places in the hall
[D]You know I hate to dance, still you ask, still you ask for my [A]hand
[A]I love you like the kids love throwing [Gbm]bottles off the Bridge
And breaking [A]in to trade your fix for Ame[D]American shoes [A]
For A[Gbm]American shoes,
I've been d[A]dying to lie aw[D]awake in a room for two
[A]I'll[Gbm] come b[D]ack, I'll come back for y[A]ou [Gbm]my l[D]ove
 
Chorus:
[Gbm]But love is a bir[D]bird that you [A]kept in your [E]coat, [Gbm]warm u[D]until it [A]died in the [E]dark
And [Gbm]death is the l[D]ove of what h[A]urts you the m[E]ost
So you d[D]drink your day away till you're warm as paradise [A]
[A]I'm not [Abm]hurt I'm [Gbm]broken, but I called [D]to say I'm f[A]fine
[A]And I heard [Abm]you had an[Gbm]another love, [D]but I'd love you to think I don't min[A]mind
[A]The baby in your [Abm]arms ain't [Gbm]mine, but I [D]made believe as though it wa[A]was
[A]And I didn't mean to [Abm]call this [Gbm]late but I think I'm in l[D]love With the thought of us
 
[A]I love you like the kids love throwing [Gbm]bottles off the Bridge
And breaking [A]in to trade your fix for Ame[D]American shoes [A]
For A[Gbm]American shoes,
I've been d[A]dying to lie aw[D]awake in a room for two
[A]I'll[Gbm] come b[D]ack, I'll come back for y[A]ou [Gbm]my l[D]ove
