American Tradition by Nicole Dollanganger
American Tradition
I put spaces in the lines to mimic the rhythmic pauses in the song.
If you really wanted to simplify, you could omit the A chord that happens at the end of each verse line.
[Intro]
D F#m E A x2
[Verse 1]
D F#m E A
He wants to lift weights like a fighter
D F#m E A
We put the medals on the wall
D F#m E A
In the room of starving vultures
D F#m E A
Gold trophies, he got ‘em all
[Verse 2]
D F#m E A
He wants to be just like his father
D F#m E A
We play the knife game on the table
D F#m E A
I bleed to death, it doesn't matter
D F#m E A
Cuz my baby, he's still the winner
[Chorus]
D F#m E
He holds me in his arms but it’s no good
D F#m E
Things don’t go like they should
D F#m E
He holds me in his arms but it’s no good
D F#m E
Things don’t go like they should
[Verse 3]
D F#m E A
Sleep on the carpet through the night
D F#m E A
We're living off a TV dinner
D F#m E A
Hanging me up by his gold chain
D F#m E A
He used to be a hockey player
[Verse 4]
D F#m E A
I used to be a figure skater
D F#m E A
Cutting my leg with the blade
D F#m E A
In the blue and red arena
D F#m E A
Trying to pretend we're the same
[Chorus]
D F#m E
He holds me in his arms but it’s no good
D F#m E
Things don’t go like they should
D F#m E
He holds me in his arms but it’s no good
D F#m E
Things don’t go like they should
