American Rust

D A Bm A G D Em A

[Verse 1]
     D
That backstop on the old ballfield's
          Bm7            D
Made from grade-A Pennsylvania steel
     G                        D  
It's been sittin' there since 
Em7 A
1951
         D
And that Shell's been on the corner
               Bm7                 
Since Coke was glass and gas was a 
D
quarter
         G             D      
And that water tower's seen ten 
           Em7
thousand suns


[Pre-Chorus]
A                          D     
You start thinkin' you can love 
              Bm7
her that long
A                       G        
And fix you up a little ranch 
   D     Em7  A
house home


[Chorus]
G                D               
Some things just keep on gettin' 
A           G
better with time
           D                  A   
That Chevrolet still tears up 
               G
clay, but lost its shine
                      D         A 
And she'll crank that radio and 
               Em
sing "Strawberry Wine"
                     D             
And when you fall in love, there's 
           G
a cloud of dust

      A                            
And a dream that's made of American
 D     A Bm7 A G D Em7 A
 rust


[Verse 2]
         D
And that diamond ring your grandpa 
gave
   Bm7              D
To grandma way back in the day
       G                   D      
Is the one you're bound to use 
               Em7 A
when you find the one
         D
And that church bell that they rang 
back then's
    Bm7                 D
The same one they'll be ringing when
    G                 D      
You both say that you do until 
         Em7
life's done


[Pre-Chorus]
A                       D        
And fix you up a little ranch 
         Bm7
house home
A                      G          
Makin' babies 'til you have to add
 D             Em7    A
 on and on and on, yeah


[Chorus]
G                D               
Some things just keep on gettin' 
A           G
better with time
           D                  A   
That Chevrolet still tears up 
               G
clay, but lost its shine
                      D         A 
And she'll crank that radio and 
               Em
sing "Strawberry Wine"
                     D             
And when you fall in love, there's 
           G
a cloud of dust
      A                            
And a dream that's made of American

 rust


[Bridge]
G                                 
Friday night tears, yellow school 
A
bus
                               G
Bud light beers and blue clear skies
Green John Deeres, ain't it just 
     A
like us
To stick around here like American 
G    A
rust
              G
Mmm, American rust


[Chorus]
G                D               
Some things just keep on gettin' 
A           G
better with time
           D                  A   
That Chevrolet still tears up 
               G
clay, but lost its shine
                      D         A 
And she'll crank that radio and 
               Em
sing "Strawberry Wine"
                     D

A             G
