CAPO II


INTRO:  D  A

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                            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, where


PRE-CHORUS:
                A                                    D
All the cars go fast fast fast, when you step on the gas gas gas
             E                         A
Nobody 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                         A
I know I won't ever get enough, is that askin' too much


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