[Intro]  D  C  Bb  C  D

[Verse 1]
D                 C
Out on the road for forty days
F                      G
Last night in Little Rock put me in a haze
D                 C
sweet sweet Connie doing her act 
F                          G
See had the whole show and that's a natural fact!
G                      D
Playin all night with Freddie King
C                       D
I got to tell you that poker's his thing
G                 D
Booze and ladies keep me right 
    F                             G
As Long as we can make it to the show tonight 

[Chorus]
D
We're an American Band 
C
We're an American Band 
         Bb
We come into your town 
                C
We'll help you party it down 
           D
We're an American Band 

[Verse 2] Follow same pattern as 1
Four young chiquitas in Omaha
Waiting for the band to return from the show 
Feelin' good feelin' right it's Saturday night 
The hotel detective he was out of sight 

Now these fine ladies they had a plan 
They was out to meet the boys in the band 
They said, "Come on dudes lets get it on" 
An we proceeded to tear that hotel down 

[Chorus]
D
We're an American Band 
C
We're an American Band 
         Bb
We come into your town 
                C
We'll help you party it down 
           D
We're an American Band
