                   Am   F C
Is this just an illusion
        Am             F              C
That I made inside my head to get me by?
Am
20 years in debt
20 years in the government
F                           C
20 years can never get me by

        Dm
Then I feel you close
Feel you close like you wanted me to
                         F
Feel you close like you wanted me to
Believe in you

Chorus:
Am                      Em      F
Rise to the top of the world, America
  C       C         Am Em
America, don't you cry
        F
Lift me up
           C           C 
Give me strength to press on
Am                      F       C
Rise to the top of the world, America
                    Am F
America, don't you cry
        C
Lift me up
Give me strength to press on

From farmers in the fields
To the tallest of the towers that fall and rise
1-7-7-6, the names upon the list
For all the ones who gave until they died
Don't you hold back
I can see in your mind,
and your mind will set you free

Then I feel you close
Feel you close like you wanted me to
Feel you close like you wanted me to
Believe in you
