    	    	Вступление

[Intro]
G   C   G   C

[Verse 1]
          G               C              G
There's a sadness in your singing I have never heard before
          D7                         C                   G
There's a dying in your living that exists from shore to shore
                         C              G            C
There's a coward in your character that I have never seen
 G                           D7              G
America what happened to the promise and the dream

[Chorus]
    D7                                  C               G
The promise was that men could live and worship as they please
    D7                               C                   G    D
The dream was for the huddled masses yearning to breathe free
   G              C                    G               C
We closed so many doors and banned the prayers on many scenes
 G                           D7              G
America what happened to the promise and the dream

[Verse 2]
                           C               G    D        G
There's a numbness in your feeling for the disadvantaged poor
          D7                                     C             G
There's a weakness in your strength because your leaders are unsure
                         C                   G                   C
There are shadows in the light that once was freedom's brightest beam
 G                           D7              G
America what happened to the promise and the dream

[Chorus]
    D7                                  C               G
The promise was that men could live and worship as they please
    D7                               C                   G    D
The dream was for the huddled masses yearning to breathe free
   G              C                    G               C
We closed so many doors and banned the prayers on many scenes
 G                           D7              G
America what happened to the promise and the dream

[Key change!]
E   A

[Verse 3]
                         D              A
There's a hating in your loving for the permanence of vows
  E7                             D                A
Tomorrow doesn't matter it's all for the here and now
                    D                   A           D
Your most important word called love is now a dirty thing
 A                           E7              A
America what happened to the promise and the dream

[Chorus]
    E7                                  D               A
The promise was that men could live and worship as they please
    E7                               D                   A    E
The dream was for the huddled masses yearning to breathe free
   A              D                    A               D
We closed so many doors and banned the prayers on many scenes
 A                           E7              A
America what happened to the promise and the dream
