A
Some people say there's no American dream
A
I hear them talkin' but they don't say a thing
D
I still believe you've to give it to get
A
Baptize your every aspiration in sweat
E                            G          D
I bow my head each night and roll up my sleeves
       E                              D
'Cause buddy it's a long hard road to easy street


[Pre-Chorus]
                      A                                    D
Where all the cars go fast fast fast, when you step on the gas gas gas
                  E                         A
Nobody else gonna pass me up goin' down the road
                   A                                       D
I want a great big house on the hill, every pocket full of hundred dollar bills
                E                                  A
Are givin' me a thrill thrill thrill I ain't never known


[Chorus]
        D
Is that askin' too much, am I over the line
     A
Am I way out of touch, tell me am I losin' my mind
  D                      E              G          A
I know I won't ever get enough, is that askin' too much


[Verse 2]
A
I never been acused of dreamin' too small
A
I never saw no shame in wantin' it all
D
I guess that's just the curse of bein' born poor
A
No matter what you got you always want more
E                        G          D
Everybody wants a lot, a little inside
E                         D
I'm not the only one with hungry eyes


[Pre-Chorus]
                           A                                    D
That wants a car that goes fast fast fast, when you step on the gas gas gas
                     E                         A
Nobody else is gonna pass me up goin' down the road
                   A                                       D
I want a great big house on the hill, every pocket full of hundred dollar bills
                 E                                  A
Man, givin' me a thrill thrill thrill I ain't never known


[Chorus]
        D
Is that askin' too much, am I over the line
     A
Am I way out of touch, tell me am I losin' my mind
  D                      E              G          A
I know I won't ever get enough, is that askin' too much
