American Dream
Recorded by Garth Brooks
Written by Jenny Yates and Garth Brooks

C       Am                 C
And the oil fields fed our family
          F              C
Neath the amber waves of grain
       Am             Em
Oh and God He was our Savior
           F                  G7
Though His name was spoken in vain

             C
My dad would leave for work each morning
       F                   D7
In the twilights last gleaming
            C   F   C
Cause every day I'd awaken 
Am     Dm   G7  C
To the American dream

        Am                 C
And the oil fields fed our family
          F              C
Neath the amber waves of grain
       Am             Em
Oh and God He was our Savior
           F                  G7
Though His name was spoken in vain

             C
My dad would leave for work each morning
       F                   D7
In the twilights last gleaming
            C   F   C
Cause every day I'd awaken 
Am     Dm   G7  C
To the American dream
