Americana Chords

(ver. 2)
Moe Bandy
C             G7              C
I've traveled all around this country

             G7                  C
In my time I thought I'd seen it all

      F            G7            Am       G7   
But today I took a detour down a back-road

          D7                             G7
Through a little town whose name I can't recall



           C          G7              C
There were old men on benches playing checkers

                 G7               C
Children playing hopscotch on the square

    F            G7           Am      F
And high above a statue of an unknown soldier

    C         G7            C
Old Glory was waving in the air



Am         F             C
Suddenly I realized what I'd too long forgotten

  Am                 F               G7
A chill rose up like mountains on my skin

    Am            F         C          F
Overcome with the feeling I knew I was seeing

C           G7   C
America all over again



  F    G7 
A—mer-icana

F             G7               C  
Pictures of a people proud and free

  Am  F      D7        G7             Am    G7   
A—m-ericana  I'll keep holding to the dream

       F          G7              C
You're still what living means to me



               G7                    C
I knew to stop would throw me off my schedule

                    G7                  C
But I parked around behind the Five and Dime

        F                G7                Am    G7 
There's something bout a small town in the summer

       D7                              G7
Like a Norman Rockwell picture back in time



          C               G7          C
Kids were courting at the Rexall soda fountain

                        G7                 C
Like we did before they built the shopping mall

      F       G7       Am              F
I saw so many reasons  why I love this country

    C                      G7               C
You know some things never really change at all



Am                   F               C
As I left the 2 lane road and pulled back on that superhighway

  Am                  F                 G7
I thought of what I'd seen back in that town

       Am            F                     
And it hit me like a freight train 

       C                     F
That a stones throw from the fast lane

C          G7             C
America is still safe and sound



  F    G7 
A—mer-icana

F             G7               C  
Pictures of a people proud and free

C Am  F      D7        G7             Am    G7   
A—m-ericana, I'll keep holding to the dream

       F          G7              C
You're still what living means to me
