              D                        A
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
                     D                  A
They thought great thoughts about liberty
             D                   A
Poets wrote down words that did fit
               E
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it

Chorus:
A                                 D            E
Take it where you find it, can't leave it alone
A                F#m        D        E
You will find a purpose to carry it on
A                F#m          D               E
Mainly when you find it your heart will be strong
  A     D A
About it

Many's the road I have walked upon
Many's the hour between dusk and dawn
Many's the time, oh, many's the mile
I see it all now through the eyes of a child

Chorus

 A               A7               D

In America

So and close your eyes, leave it all for a while
Leave the world and your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day to a new waking dream

Chorus

Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
