Verse 1:

                   C
	Some have said,done through history

If you last it's a mistery

               F                                          C
	But i guess they don't know,what they're talking about

                   C
	From the mountains down to the sea

You've become such a habit with me F C America,F-merher-ica Verse 2:

                    C
	Well i come from,down around Tennesee

But the people in California

              F                  C
	Are nice to me,A-merher-ica

                   C
	It don't matter where i may roam

Tell you people that it's home sweet home F C America,F-merher-ica Chorus:

                  F                                  Am
	And my brothers are all black and white,yellow too

                                      F                 F
	And the red man is right,to expect a little from you

	Promise and then follow through,America

	And the men,who fell on the planes

And lived,through hardship and pain F C America,F-merher-ica

                 C
	And the men who could not fight

In a war that didn't seem right

                F                        C
	You let them come home,A-merher-ica

	Are nice to me,A-merher-ica

                   C

Tell you people that it's home sweet home F C America,F-merher-ica F C America,F-merher-ica
