Am C   G    Am C   G


[Verse 1]
Am                       C
  I’m the river, I’m the rain
                          G
The lonesome whistle of a train
                       F
I’m the amber waves of grain
Am                         C
  I’m the highway, I’m the farm
                            G
The fertile fields and boulevards
                             F
The hand that rests over your heart


[Chorus 1]
Am    C
Oh oh oh
        G
I’m the echo of the bell that’s ringing
Am    C
Oh oh oh
        G
I’m the freedom in the song we’re singing
F                            G
  I’m the seed that’s in the dust
                         F
I’m the prayer in God we trust
                            G
A place to dream for all of us
         Am  C G  Am C G
I’m America


[Verse 2]
Am                     C
  I’m the music to the dance,
                     G
The open window to a chance
                                F
The place where courage takes a stance
Am                        C
  All the colors that you see,
                       G
The lights from 30,000 feet,
                        F
Ya I’m the roar of victory,


[Chorus 1]

Am    C
Oh oh oh
        G
I’m the echo of the bell that’s ringing
Am    C
Oh oh oh
        G
I’m the freedom in the song we’re singing
F                            G
  I’m the seed that’s in the dust
                         F
I’m the prayer in God we trust
                            G
A place to dream for all of us
         Am
I’m America

[Solo]
Am C | G | Am C | G |


[Bridge]
F                          G
  I’m the fathers, I’m the sons,
                          Am
I’m the footprints in the mud,
                         G      G
I’m the shelter washed in blood


[Chorus 2]
Am    C     G
Oh oh oh oh ohhhh
Am    C     G          F
Oh oh oh oh ohhhh   ya-eh
F                            G
  I’m the seed that’s in the dust
                         F
I’m the prayer in God we trust
                            G
A place to dream for all of us
         Am  C G
I’m America
         Am  C G
I’m America
         Am
I’m America
