American Squirm
by Nick Lowe
(note: play with capo on first fret to match key on album)

verse:
C -       G        Am
I made an American Squirm
C      G       Am F
and it felt so right
C  -            G       Am
On screen was a musical worm
C     F    G        C
Deep, deep into the night

C - G Am
C F G C

C         -           G         Am
Yes I was living in a wonderful world
C    G         Am F
Everything was fine
C        -         G        Am
Tried to mate in a horrible state
C     F    G        -
Deep, deep into the night

chorus:
        C      F      G   -
It goes on and on and on
        C      F      G   -
It goes on and on and on
        C      F      G   -
It goes on and on and on
      Am        -       -     -
But I thank you for the time
      Am        -       -     -
yes I thank you for the time
          G          -
we killed good time

-guitar solo-
(chords same as first verse)

-chorus-

I made an American squirm
and it felt so right
on the screen was a comical term
deep, deep into the night
C     F    G        C
deep, deep into the night
C     F    G        Am
deep, deep into the night

C      F      G   -
It goes on and on and on
        C      F      G   -
It goes on and on and on
-repeat and fade-
