NOTE: I think the song is in the key of C#.  An easier version would be to play in the key of C 
(C, F, G, Am). Or you can use the transposing function & lower the tab below by 1 half step. 


Intro: C# F# 


Verse 1:
         C#                  F#
She grew up on a side of the road
                 C#                     F#
Where the church bells ring and strong love grows
            C#                F#
She grew up good, she grew up slow
          C#        F#
Like American honey
            C#                  F#
Steady as a preacher, free as a weed
                     C#                               F#
Couldn't wait to get goin', but wasn't quite ready to leave
       C#             F#
So innocent, pure and sweet
     C#        F#
American honey


Chorus:
          A#m        G#             F#     C# 
There's a wild, wild whisper blown' in the wind
        A#m    F#          C#        G#
Callin' out my name like a long lost friend
     A#m        G#          F#       C# 
Oh I miss those days as the years go by
   A#m                    F# 
Oh nothing's sweeter than summertime
          C#       F#
And American honey


Verse 2:
                  C#                 F#
Get caught in the race of this crazy life
                C#                        F#
Tryin' to be everything can make you lose your mind
             C#         F#
I just wanna go back in time
         C#       F#
To American honey, yea
(repeat Chorus)


Bridge:
A#m              F#
Gone for so long now
A#m                     F#
I gotta get back to her somehow
         C#       F#
To American honey


(repeat Chorus)
         C#   F#
And American honey
