American tune - Paul Simon

[C] Many's the [F] time [C] I've [G7] been [C] mis[G]tak[E7]en and [Am] many [E7] times [Am] confused [C]

Yes and I've [F] of[C]ten [G7] felt [C] for[G]saken [E7] and [Am] certain[E7]ly mis[Am]used [C]

[C9] Aw, but I'm [F] al[G]right, I'm [F]al[C]right
I'm just [F]wea[C]ry [G] to [G#DIM7] my [Am] bones [A7]

[D7] Still you [G7] don't expect to be [C] bright [G7] and [D] bon vi[G]vant [C] so [F] far [C] a[G]way from [E7] home
[Dm7] So [C] far [G] away from [C] home

[C] And I don't know a [F] soul [C] who's [G7] not [C] been [G] battered [E7]
I don't have a [Am] friend that [E7] feels at [Am] ease [C]

I don't know a [F] dream [C] that's [G7] not [C] been [G] shattered [C E7] or [Am] driven [E7] to it's [Am] knees

[C9] Aw, but it's [F] al[G] right, it's [F] al[C]right for we [F] lived [C] so [G] well [G#DIM7] so [Am] long [A7]

[D7] Still [G7] when I think of the [C] road [G7] we're [D] travelin' [G] on
[C] I [F] won[C]der [G] what's gone [E7] wrong
[Dm7] I can't help but [C] wonder [G] what's gone [C] wrong

[C] And I dreamed I was dying...
I dreamed that my [G] soul rose [G7] unex[Am]pectedly [D#DIM7]
And looking back [G7] down on me [F] smiled reas[C]suring[G]ly

And I dreamed I was [C] flying....

For we come on the [F] ship [C] they [G] call [C] the [G] Mayflow[E7]er
We come on the [Am] ship that [E7] sailed the [Am] moon [C]

We come in the [F] a[C]ges [G] most [C] un[G]certain [C] hours [E7]
and [Am] sing an [E7] American [Am] Tune [C]

[C9] Aw, but it's [F] alright [G], it's [F]al[C]right
you can't [F] be [C] for[G]e[E7]ver [Am] blessed [A7]
[D7] Still [G] tomorrow's gonna be [C] ano[G7]ther [D] working [G] day
[C] And I'm [F] trying [C] to [G] get some [E7] rest
[Am] that's [Dm7] all I'm [C] trying [G] to [G7] get some [C] rest

[C] And I dreamed I was flying....
And high up abo[G]ve my [G7] eyes could [Am] clearly see [D#DIM7]
The Statue of [G7] Liberty [F] sailing a[C]way to [G] sea
[G7] And I dreamed I was [C] flying....
