I was born on a rock in the middle of the ocean
G                                     C
Where the wind's so rough it can carry you to London
  Am                                              C
It's a new found land with an old soul reaching

My parents gave me a life full of dreams
   G                                                  C
Yeah they gave me a heart to endure most anything
   Am                                      C
But everyone gets a broken pair of wi ngs
                                               G
And if you try to fly you'll fail
               D

And my heart burst out of my chest

I woke up in America for something bigger than myself
    Em                      C
More than fireworks and fanfare
   G                            D

You're still beautiful America

Count the lines on my face and wonder how they got there
    Am                                             C
Oh but every one's a story of how grace appeared
                                G
And carried me through the day
                          D
And the voice said, "this land ain't dead"
         Em                                  C
You still got better days up ahead

More than a star-spangled banner
