[Verse]

D
Out on the road for forty days
C                          D
Last night in Little Rock, put me in a haze
D
Sweet, sweet Connie was doin' her act
    C                               D
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact
 G                 D
Up all night with Freddie King
  C                D
I got to tell you, poker's his thing
G                 D
Booze and ladies, keep me right
   F                             G
As long as we can make it to the show tonight


[Chorus]

          D
We're an American band
          C
We're an American band
             Bb
We're comin' to your town
               C
We'll help you party it down
          D             C
We're an American band

[Verse 2]

D
Four young chiquitas in Omaha
C                         D
Waitin' for the band to return from the show
  D
A feelin' good, feelin' right and it's Saturday night
    G                       D
The hotel detective, he was outta sight
     G                       D
Now these fine ladies, they had a plan
C                        D
They was out to meet the boys in the band
            G              D
They said, "Come on dudes, let's get it on!"
       F                      G
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down


[Chorus 2]

          D
We're an American band
          C
We're an American band
             Bb
We're comin' to your town
               C
We'll help you party it down
          D           C
We're an American band
           D
We're an American band
          C
We're an American band
             Bb
We're comin' to your town
               C
We'll help you party it down

We're an American band
