[Verse]
                                  G                   A7    
Her name was etched in sorrow but now it's blasted in lights
     Am              F              G         Am    
With beauty that can blossom out of dark cold nights
                                             G       Am 
Her quest to find her brightness through her darkest day
                    F                 G    Am     
American dreams are built on words we dare not say
G                                   
She's you and them she is me and him
                            Am         
She's the stars and stripes flying high
Am                                  
Red white and blue she is me and you
      Am                          
She's American through and through


[Chorus]

[Verse]
A7                 
Eureka you found it
                   F            
Watch me smile and watch me slay
       G              Am                   
'cause I'm living for my true self everyday
                          F             
It's not about your color gender or size
       G       Am                  
But if we come together we can rise
  F                                     
I came from nothing made me wanna scream
    G               Am                         
But I fought for my piece of the American Dream
                        F          
You can be a stripe and get in line
   Am                   G      
Or be a star and not be defined
        Am                
Come on   y'all live free
                       G                    
I'm the elephant queen what are you gonna be


[Chorus]
     Em       F        G        Am
I am American American American  
     Em       F       
I am American American
    G                 
The red white and blue
Am                      Em7 F        G       
I'mi'mi'mi'mi'mamerican    American American
Am   Em7      F        G             Am 
I am American American just like you too


[Verse]
Am                       
Little boy from Tennessee
Am                     
Meant for more Top Four
F                 G   Am             
Hey you there now pay attention to me
                                    G         Am
We fought for our right to love and be who we be
               F            G Am            
We will not be silenced and I won't sit down
    Em            F                     G Am            
I'm gay and proud might not be loud but I found my sound
G              F                              
Kids called me names and tried to tear me down
          Am                                      
But I had big old dreams bigger than my small town
    Am                    
Now here I am with Mama Ru
Am                    
American just like you


[Outro]
Am                             
I'mi'mi'mamerican I am American
Am               
American American
     Am      
I am American
Am               
Just like you too
