Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
Em G C G C G
What would bring a young man to rise up from his birthplace, pack his life into a suitcase, and
D
set sail for distant shores?
Em G C G C G
And what would cause a grandma after eighty years of living, to leave her little village not
D
knowing what may lay in store?
C G C
What would fill the hopeless millions with a newly kindled faith, in a brighter future far across the
D
waves?
C D
I can almost hear them say:
G Em C D G
America, I hear you calling me. Sweet land of liberty, I’m on my way. America, beckoning with
Em C D C G Em D G
open arms. I long to feel the warmth of freedom’s flame. God has given hope a name: America.
Em G C G C G
They spent the voyage crowded at the bottom of a steamer, fighting famine, fear, and fever, for
D
six long weeks or more.
Em G C G C G D
Children cried from hunger, oh and mothers wept for babies. Praying they would make it to see
the other shore.
C G C
But the weariness and worry must have melted from their eyes to behold that lady rising in the
D
sky.
C D
Oh can’t you hear them cry:
G Em C D G
America, I hear you calling me. Sweet land of liberty, I’m on my way. America, beckoning with
Em C D C G Em D G
open arms. I long to feel the warmth of freedom’s flame. God has given hope a name: America.
Em G C G C
So I will not take for granted this life I’m blessed to lead, or the ones who sacrificed so much to
Em C
hand it down to me.
C D Em C Em C
‘Cause not so long ago, this land I call home was just a dream of huddled masses yearning to
D
breathe free. Oh, oh, oh
G Em C D G
America, God keep you in his hand. Keep you strong and help you stand. This I pray. America,
Em C D C
hold high your splendid torch, let the whole world feel the warmth of freedom’s flame. God has
G Em G D C D G
given hope a name: Ameeeeericaaaaaaa
