[Chorus]
G  C     Am        D
Oh Roxy, don't you love me
G       C          Em  F
Is it because I'm American
G     C            Am      D                  G
Maybe it's because I don't grope you and your friends
         C               Am           D                 G
Like the fool behind you now, dancing halfway down your pants
 
[Interlude]
G  C  Bm  Am*
G  C  Bm  Am*
 
[Verse 1]
G                  B7                  Am
Somewhere near the border of Spain and France
  D                            G
A bottle of bad red wine in my head
                B7                   Am
Sixty Francs to look like a fool and dance
D                               G
Mechanics understand not what I said
                   B7                   Am
Thinking 'bout the time that I had, how sad
    D                                     Cmaj7 G
Her one-word shirt describes my plight in red
        Cmaj7 G  Cmaj7 G
And her name
     C   D  D/F# G
Is a reoccurring theme
 
[Interlude]
G  C  Bm  Am*
G  C  Bm  Am*
 
[Verse 2]
G                 B7                  Am
Start a move that everyone knows, the awkward pose
    D                                  G
And in the mean time, her eyes finding me
              B7                      Am
Reluctantly I start the approach, her eyes they glow
    D                                        G
But it's not glee, it's fear, that's why she flees
                B7                    Am
Sing of girls I wish that I knew, her eyes rung true
    D                                      Cmaj7 G
Her one-word short now stabbing, sparkling blue
        Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 G
And her name   
     C      D          D/F#
is a barely flickering flame
 
[Chorus]
G  C     Am        D
Oh Roxy, don't you love me
G       C          Em  F
Is it because I'm American
G     C            Am      D                  G
Maybe it's because I don't grope you and your friends
         C               Am           D                 G
Like the fool behind you now, dancing halfway down your pants

G   Cm   Am  D
 
[Bridge]
G      Cm              G        Cm        G
Roxy's spinning around or is it me that's down
         Cm           Am         D
How many fingers do I see, is it three by now
G         Cm                G               Cm          G
Stands on top of the stairs and screams for who, who cares
         Cm             D             D/F#             G
All that matters now is my eyes, like Apollo's, become clear
 
[Interlude]
G  C  Bm  Am*
G  C  Bm  Am*
 
[Verse 3]
G                  B7                   Am
Somewhere near the border of pain and romance
    D                          G
Her name is undetermined as of yet
                B7             Am
Potential for a Roxy again has always been
    D                          G
The hardest part to get out of head
                  B7                Am
Comes full circle all in the end, I hope
      D                                  Cmaj7 G
Could one-word shirts in songs be just a joke
        Cmaj7 G  Cmaj7 G
And her name
     C          D      D/F#
Is a never-ever-ending game
 
[Chorus]
G  C     Am        D
Oh Roxy, don't you love me
G       C          Em  F
Is it because I'm American
G     C            Am      D                  G
Maybe it's because I don't grope you and your friends
         C               Am           D                 G
Like the fool behind you now, dancing halfway down your pants
G  C     Am        D
Oh Roxy, don't you love me
G        C         Em  F
Why do I gotta be  American
G     C            Am      D                  G
Maybe it's because I don't grope you and your friends
         C               Am           D                 G
Like the fool behind you now, dancing halfway down your pants
 
[Outro]
G  C  Am  D
G  C  Am  D
 
G  C        Am    D         G
Oh Roxy (Oh Roxy) yeah yeah yeah
   C        Am             D                   G
Oh Roxy (Oh Roxy) like the guy who's down your pants
