O America

  A                 D    A
O, America you're calling,
  D        A            D   E
I can hear you calling me,
F#m                         D     A
You are calling me to be true to thee,
  G                E
True to thee I will be.


[Verse 2]
A                 D    A
O, America no weeping,
D        A        D      E
Let me heal your wounded heart.
F#m                  D     A
I will keep you in my keeping,
  G                E
Till there be, a new start.


[Chorus]
F#m                                   D
And I will answer you, and I will take your hand,
       E                     A
And lead you to the sun
F#m                                   D
And I will stand by you, do all that I can do,
  E
And we will be as one.

From your prairies to the sea,
F#m                         D     A
From your mountains grand, and all through this land,

You are beautiful to me.
