Waylon Jennings - "America"

************* AMERICA ************

written by Sammy Johns and performed by Waylon Jennings.

Verse 1:
D
Some have said,done through history

If you last it's a mistery
A D
But i guess they don't know,what they're talking about
D
From the mountains down to the sea

You've become such a habit with me
A D
America,A-merher-ica

Verse 2:
D
Well i come from,down around Tennesee

But the people in California
A D
Are nice to me,A-merher-ica
D
It don't matter where i may roam

Tell you people that it's home sweet home
A D
America,A-merher-ica

Chorus:
G Bm
And my brothers are all black and white,yellow too
A G
And the red man is right,to expect a little from you
A G D
Promise and then follow through,America

Verse 3:
D
And the men,who fell on the planes

And lived,through hardship and pain
A D
America,A-merher-ica
D
And the men who could not fight

In a war that didn't seem right
A D
You let them come home,A-merher-ica

Chorus.

Verse 4:
D
Well i come from,down around Tennesee

But the people in California
A D
Are nice to me,A-merher-ica
D
It don't matter where i may roam

Tell you people that it's home sweet home
A D
America,A-merher-ica
A D
America,A-merher-ica

A D
It's home sweet home,A-merher-ica
A D
America,A-merher-ica
