American Spirit

[Verse 1:]
I could have given you the world
But the world was not enough
Not enough to get the truth
So I had to call your bluff

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
So why can’t I breathe when I see you?
And why aren’t you affected?
And why can’t you admit you left it?

[Chorus:]
I don’t know, don’t know, don’t know what your problem is
But I bet it’s hard to pronounce
So why can’t our love story have a happy ending for me?
I can’t say, can’t say, I can’t say something nice, so I won’t say nothing at all
So why can’t our love story have a happy ending for

[Verse 2:]
All the lonely hearts of the world
Are trying to get home (get home)
Doubt disappearing into the wind
I’m trying to get home

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
So why can’t I breathe when I see you?
I shouldn’t have to explain something I never did
‘Cause I’ll be the first to admit

[Chorus:]
I don’t know, don’t know, don’t know what your problem is
But I bet it’s hard to pronounce
So why can’t our love story have a happy ending for me?
I can’t say, can’t say, I can’t say something nice, so I won’t say nothing at all
So why can’t our love story have a happy ending for me?

[Bridge:]
There’s an 18 wheel cement truck that’s gonna crush every bone in your body, oh
I could have given you the world, but the world was not enough

[Chorus/Outro:]
I don’t know, don’t know, don’t know what your problem is
But I bet it’s hard to pronounce
So why can’t our love story have a happy ending for me?
I can’t say, I can’t say something nice, so I won’t say nothing at all
No, I won’t say nothing at all (have a happy ending for me), no, I won’t say nothing
Have a happy ending for me (no I won’t say nothing), have a happy ending for me (no I won’t say nothing)
