An American Dream
│ D G A D │ D G A │ A │
D G
I beg your pardon mama, what did you say
A D
My mind was drifting off on Martinique Bay
D G
It's not that I'm not interested, you see
A D
Augusta, Georgia is just no place to be
D G
I think Jamaican in the moonlight
A D
Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night
D G
We got no money mama, but we can go
A D
We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove
D G
Keep on talking mama, I can't hear
A D
Your voice, it tickles down inside of my ear
D G
I feel a tropical vacation this year
A D
Might be the answer to this Hillbilly beard
D G
I think Jamaican in the moonlight
A D
Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night
D G
We got no money mama, but we can go
A D
We'll split the difference, go to Coconut Grove
D G
Voila! An American Dream
A D
Well, we can travel girl, without any means
D G
When it's as easy as closing your eyes
A D
And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign
│ D G A D │ D G A │ A │
D G
Just keep talking mama, I like that sound
A D
It goes so easy with that rain falling down
D G
I think a tropical vacation this year
A D
Might be the answer to this Hillbilly beard
D G
Voila! An American Dream
A D
Yeah, we can travel girl, without any means
D G
When it's as easy as closing your eyes
A D
And dream Jamaica is a big neon sign
D G
Just think Jamaican in the moonlight
A D
Sandy beaches, drinking rum every night
D G
We got no money mama, but we can go
A D
Split the difference, go to Coconut Gr____ove

I like this the best of the five. Easy to follow and goes along with the song.

I agree..I can hear the strumming in my head by the placement of the chords with the words...great..but is it "beard" or "beer"?

It is actually "Hillbilly Beer", and yes it makes more sense than Beard. They don't just make moonshine. And the hillbilly beer is truly awful, drinking rum every night would be a definite upgrade! In the actual song by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, it's Beer, not Beard. They just add an 'and' or something right after to keep the rhythm, so it's a little hard to tell for sure.
