American Eyes
By: The Lilac Time
Capo: On First fret
Intro: C F G
C
Here is a story of three young people
C F/G C
A girl and two boys, she's got American eyes, American eyes
C
They left school for fame and fortune
C F
But she was the one, the girl with the stars in her eyes
G
Stars and stripes in her eyes
C
I was one of the boys, oh how I loved her
C F
But she wouldn't see me, She shut her apple pie eyes
G C
As blue as Jamaica skies
C F G
Oh unrequited love quite often grows, and never quite goes
C F G
Cho doh doh doh , Ohh Ohh (American eyes)
C
He was one of the boys, he joined the army
G F G C
He sailed from American shores, to fight the foreigners' war
F F G
Baby shut your eyes up tight, I swear the world won't end tonight
F G F G
And when we die our spirits fly, into the light above the sky
C F
Ohh ohh ohh ohh
G C
American eyes
