C
G7
C I’ve traveled all around this country
G7
C In my time I thought I’d seen it all
F
G7
Am G7 But today I took a detour down a back-road
D7
G7 Through a little town whose name I can’t recall
C
G7
C There were old men on benches playing checkers
G7
C Children playing hopscotch on the square
F
G7
Am F And high above a statue of an unknown soldier
C
G7 C Old Glory was waving in the air
Am F C Suddenly I realized what I’d too long forgotten
Am
F
G7 A chill rose up like mountains on my skin
Am
F
C F Overcome with the feeling I knew I was seeing C G7 C America all over again
F G7 A—mer-icana F
G7
C Pictures of a people proud and free Am F
D7
G7
Am G7 A—m-ericana I’ll keep holding to the dream
F
G7
C You’re still what living means to me
G7
C I knew to stop would throw me off my schedule
G7
C But I parked around behind the Five and Dime
F
G7
Am G7 There’s something bout a small town in the summer
D7
G7 Like a Norman Rockwell picture back in time
C
G7 C Kids were courting at the Rexall soda fountain
G7
C Like we did before they built the shopping mall
F
G7
Am
F I saw so many reasons why I love this country
C
G7
C You know some things never really change at all
Am
F
C As I left the 2 lane road and pulled back on that superhighway
Am
F
G7 I thought of what I’d seen back in that town
Am
F
And it hit me like a freight train C F That a stones throw from the fast lane C
G7
C America is still safe and sound
F G7 A—mer-icana F
G7
C Pictures of a people proud and free C
Am F
D7
G7
Am G7 A—m-ericana, I’ll keep holding to the dream
F
G7
C You’re still what living means to me
