6 String American Dream Chords by Walker Hayes

[Intro]

G   C   G  D  G
 
 
[Verse]

        G
Well I hit that hit song lottery
    C
In-laws are finally proud of me
     G
And after taxes I'm probably
     D
The richest guy I know
 
       G
Got a pair of jetskis in my yacht
      C
Paid off my trailer, 

heck I could buy the park
     G
But guess what y'all, 

life's still hard
    D
As far as living goes
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

            C                          
Yeah I'm a little bit higher up on that
            A
 Nashville ladder
     C                          
But money didn't fix anything 
             D
that really matters
 
 
[Chorus]

    C
My haters still say I can't sing
        G
And my marriage still needs counseling
        D
And my sons don't know how not to fight
 Em
Daughter's shorts are 

too short and too tight
 
    C
And if I'm drinking honestly
 G
Still can't drink responsibly
     D
I'm six string American dream
    Em
But I still wake up sad
 
   C
I still need Jesus
    A        D       G
And I still miss my dad
 
 
[Verse]

        G
Work's still the wheel and 

I'm still the hamster
 C
Still got prayers that

 God ain't answered
 G
Uncle Bill still got cancer
     D
But wе're still on our knees
 
         G
And I'm still don't empty at 

the filling station
 C
Trying to copе with Copenhagen
       G
Thank God I'm safe 

'cause my life savings
 D
Can't save me from me
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

         C                    
I got a zero turn John Deere  
                       A
that'll cut the grass faster
         C                       
I guess money can't fix anything 
             D
that really matters
 
 
[Chorus]
    C
My haters still say I can't sing
        G
And my marriage still needs counseling
        D
And my sons don't know how not to fight
 Em
Daughter's shorts are 

too short and too tight
 
    C
And if I'm drinking honestly
 G
Still can't drink responsibly
     D
I'm six string American dream
    Em
But I still wake up sad
 
   C
I still need Jesus
    A        D       G
And I still miss my dad
 
So bad
 
 
[Break]
 G        C      G       D
Wooh ooh ooooh oohhh  alright
 
               G
So maybe this song's a big ol' hit
       C
Maybe radio don't ever even touch it
           G
Guess the point of it is whatever you're doing
       D
Better do it 'cause you love it
 
 
[Chorus]
    C
My haters still say I can't sing
        G
And my marriage still needs counseling
        D
And my sons don't know how not to fight
 Em
Daughter's shorts are too short and too tight
 
    C
And if I'm drinking honestly
 G
Still can't drink responsibly
     D
I'm six string American dream
    Em
But I still wake up sad
 
   C
I still need Jesus
    A        D       G
And I still miss my dad
 
 
[Outro]
             C
See y'all I still need Jesus
    A        D       G   G
And I still miss my dad
