[Verse 1]
CF
I set out like Kerouac, in my American car,
GCFG
Carrying a dream and a road map, deep in my American heart,
CF
But where's them mountain majesties? Where's those waves of grain?
GCFG4G
Billboards from sea to shining sea, man, it ain't the same!
[Chorus]
FC/EG4G
I've been searching for the promised land,
FC/EDm7G7
But it's just another neon come - on... roadside stand,
CF
Little tin toys that fall apart, that's all they got here,
GCF
Come all this way to find my heart,
G4GCCadd9CCadd9FDm/FFG
All I get is sou - ve - nirs!

[Verse 2]
CF
They got Mount Rushmore on a cup, everybody needs one of those,
GCFG
For a dollar more they'll fill up, you can drink out of Lincoln's nose,
CF
They got the Hard Rock T - shirts, they got Elvis too,
GCFGsus4G
Sooner or later, mark my words, they're gonna get you!
[Chorus]
FC/EG4G
I've been searching for the promised land,
FC/EDm7G7
But it's just another neon come - on... roadside stand,
CF
Little tin toys that fall apart, that's all they got here,
GCF
Come all this way to find my heart,
G4GCCadd9CCadd9FDm/FFG
All I get is sou - ve - nirs!

[Verse 3]
CF
Baby, I believed in you, thought you believed in me,
GCFG
I thought we had a love that's true, not a close fac - simile,
CF
I don't want your dime store ring, it turns my finger green,
GCFG4G
I don't want your dime store love, I want the real thing!
[Chorus]
FC/EG4G
I've been searching for the promised land,
FC/EDm7G7
But it's just another neon come - on... roadside stand,
CF
Little tin toys that fall apart, that's all they got here,
GCF
Come all this way to find my heart,
G4GC
All I get is sou - ve - nirs!
