American Dream Teclado

	  D                       G 
I beg your pardon momma what did you say 
A                         D 
My mind was drifting on a Martinque day 
                          G 
It's not that I'm not interested you see 
A                       D  
Augusta Georgia is just no place to be 
                       G 
I think Jamaica in the moonlight 
A                      D 
Sandy beaches drinking rum every night 
D                        G 
We've got no money momma but we can go 
A                                     D 
We'll split the difference  and go to Coconut grove 
D                          G 
Just keep on talking momma I can hear 
A                          D 
Your voice it tickles down inside of my ear 
D                 G 
I feel a tropical vacation this year 
A                           D 
Might be the answer to this Hillbilly beer 
                       G 
I think Jamaica in the moonlight 
A                      D 
Sandy beaches drinking rum every night 
D                        G 
We've got no money momma but we can go 
A                                     D 
We'll split the difference  and go to Coconut grove 
D            G 
Viola an American dream 
A                     D 
We can travel girl without any means 
D                    G 
When it's as easy as closing your eyes 
A                      D 
And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign 
 
SOLO 
 
D                          G 
Just keep on talking momma I like the sound 
A                          D 
It goes so good with that rain poring down 
D                 G 
I feel a tropical vacation this year 
A                           D 
Might be the answer to this Hillbilly beer 
                       G

A                      D 
Sandy beaches drinking rum every night 
D                        G 
We've got no money momma but we can go 
A                                     D 
We'll split the difference  and go to Coconut grove

And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign
