INTRO (play funky):   F  Bb   F  Bb   F  Bb  C       
                      F  Bb   F  Bb   C                

                 F         Bb           F                                                                                                                                            
She comes out on Fridays everytime
Bb                   F         Bb
Stands out in a line
C                  Bb                   F  Bb   F  Bb
It could have been anyone she sees
C                      F       Bb
     She waits another week to fall apart
C                                  F  Bb
     She couldn’t make another day
C               Bb
  I wish it was anyone but me
C                     Bb
   It could have been anyone you see
C                     Bb  
  She had something breakable just under her skin


Dm             Bb                      F
    American girls all glitter and noise
                  C                    Dm 
Playing the changes for all of the boys
              Bb           F
Holding a candle up to my hand
          C                      Bb
Making me feel so incredible

Play the other verses as the first

She comes out of closets every night
Dressed for a parade 
Just smiling at Jesus on her knees
She gets a little kick out of showing it to me
Before she puts it all away
And she could keep anything from me
She could have been anyone you see
She’s nothing but porcelain underneath her skin

American girls all glitter and noise
Playing the changes for all of the boys
Holding a candle up to her hand
Making me feel so incredible

Little shiver shaking me everyday
But I could get this same thing anywhere
So if she goes away
well it's alright and I'm ok
hey, she said come back again tonight
I said I might I might I might
She said well that's alright
If it's alright, it's alright with you
And it's alright if it's alright with me

I waited for an hour last Friday night
She never came around
She took almost everything from me
I’m going through my closets
Trying on her clothes, almost everyday
She could give anyone but me
I wish it was anyone but me
Nothing but pins? and ashes under my skin

American girls all glitter and noise
Playing the changes for all of the boys
Holding a candle right up to my hand 
Making me feel so incredible
If I make you cry please tell me why
I can try again if you ask me to try
American girls all feathers and cream
Coming to bed so edible
American girls oh
American girls
American girls oh oh oh oh
American girls oh
American girls 
American girls oh oh oh
You make me cry
You make me cry
You make me cry
