American Nightmare
By Josh Tyrrell
==============================================
EHot cherry on Friday night
EWhen the sun goes down my spine
EI put an axe in my baby's head
EI'm gonna end up doing time
AShe looks so good in redE  
BAmerican nightmare running scaredE  
EShe shoulda been hard to get
EShe shoulda been hard to kill
EShe shoulda been hard to kill, hey
AI had to split your headE  
BAmerican nightmare running scareEd
BI'm heading down the highway
ESign has three inverted nines
BIf the law don't get me the devil will
EBut not without a fight
ADoes this highway never eEnd
BAmerican nightmare running scaredE  
BAmerican nightmare running scaredE  
BI'm heading down the highway
ESign has three inverted nines
BIf the law don't get me the devil will
EBut not without a fight
AThis highway never fucking endsE  
BAmerican nightmare running scareEd
BHey, American nightmare running scareEd
