American Car Chords & Lyrics - Mike Doughty

[C]My circus [Bb]train pulls through the [F]night
Full of lions and trapeze artists
Im done with elephants and clowns
I want to Run away and join the office

[G]Aimless [Am]sister, youre s[F]urrounded
Angel-faced and Im astounded
[Dm]How sweet you are
[F]How sweet you are

In your [C]long, black [Bb]American [F]car
[C]And you [Am]know just where to [Dm]find me [F]
[C]If I [Bb]dont know who you [F]are
You will [C]remind me[Am] [Dm] [F]

[C]Theres a [Bb]girl down in the [F]bar
A flaming star upon her shoulder
Slugging hot pink frozen drinks
To put the foot down on her smolder

[G]Easy, [Am]cowboy, whats the [F]rush now'
She may cleave me like a snowplow
[Dm]How sweet you are
[F]How sweet you are

[C]All the [Bb]lazy days are [F]gone
Still the grind is grinding on
Throw the memories in a drawer
Lock myself behind a door

[G]Aimless [Am]sister, youre s[F]urrounded
Angel-faced and Im astounded
Easy, cowboy, whats the rush now'
She may cleave me like a snowplow
[Dm]How sweet you are
[F]How sweet you are

In your[C] long, black[Bb] American[F] car
[C]And you [Am]know just where to [Dm]find me [F]
[C]If I [Bb]dont know who you [F]are
