D5                    E5
You never crossed my mind
             A5              D5
As i crossed all of those borderlines

D5                     E5
Its an awful thing to say, im sorry
    A5              D5        D5
But i was slipping away. I slipped away.

A5          G5          D5
Mary-Lou's a drifter
                   E5
Oh she bummed a roll-up and a ride
  A5                 G5                  D5
And her southern drawl split those warm nights

 A5               G5
"Well its nice to meet you
    D5             E5                 A5
And youre very English well aint that swell.
   G5                D5               E5
Oh come on kid lets give em' hell."

  A5       G5      D5       E5
Those American girls
  A5       G5      D5       E5
Those American girls
  A5       G5      D5       E5
Those American girls
  A5       G5      D5       E5
Those American girls (They make it easy)

 A5        G5        D5
Jazz fourty-fives and
           E5                  A5
Young dusty lust in 3 'o' clock wind
             G5             D5        E5
I lost quick lovers to sloe gin

F#5
I was happy chasing, 
C#5
Your skirt, Heartbeats racing
D5                 E5
Then i skipped across the world...

D5                    E5
You never crossed my mind
             A5              D5
As i crossed all of those borderlines

D5                     E5
Its an awful thing to say, im sorry
    A5              D5        D5
But i was slipping away. I slipped away.


  A5       G5      D5       E5
Those American girls
  A5       G5      D5       E5
Those American girls
  A5       G5      D5       E5
Those American girls
  A5       G5      D5       E5
Those American girls (They make it easy)
