Well, [Bb] the angels, they complained when the world was made
[Eb] They said, [Db] in human hands, you sure [Ab] you want this freedom placed?

Still [Ab] traveling back streets [Eb] of America
Some [Db] _ _ [Eb] _ _
places make [Ab] me smile, others [Eb] make me cry
_ _ [Db] _ _ [Eb] _
Don't know the future [Ab] of the back streets [Eb] of America
_ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] [Db] Only thing I know for sure [Ab] is it's in your [Eb] hands and mine
_ _ _ Yeah, [Db] it's in your _ [Eb] hands, in your hands and _ mine
_ _ _ Well, [Bb] we've come too far to let it go to waste
[Eb] But [Db] it sure does hurt [Eb] these growing pains of America
_ Oh, yes, that's true
_ We _ [Bb] know Rome wasn't built in a day
How [Db] such a powerful thing [Ab] could just crumble and fade _
[Eb] Wake up America, _ _ _ _ before [Db] freedom, _ _ [Ab] yeah
Yeah, [Eb] it slips away
_ _ Oh, _ [Db] yeah, freedom, _ [Ab] _
it could [Eb] slip away _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ I want people to know America's not perfect, but it's a great place
We gotta, you know, see it from the inside out
That's a great song, man, that's a real healing song
[Bb] That's the kind of songs that America needs
That's what [E] I think
_ Well, _ my friend, that is a powerful [N] song
That is an awesome song
It has a line in it that I just wish [Eb] if everybody [Abm] in America
would use this as their theme song
If they would say, you said, if you can't see the good
we don't want to hear about the bad
I think if everybody would stand up
I'm getting some [Gbm] nods from the peanut gallery in there _
But I [Eb] think if everybody would stand, you [Bb] know
would stand strong [Eb] together and say
we're tired of the news that you're showing us
we want to see the good
I'd love that
Did you write that song?
Yeah, I wrote that song
Wow, that is a big talent
That's a big
[N] How long, it's only been out since October, right?
That song, I [Em] just wrote [E] it maybe about three months ago
We just recorded _ [Eb] it three days ago Really?
I'm giving you, you're going to be happy
I see, I [Gbm] see, oh my gosh, I [Bb] feel so special
[Eb] I'm going to, when it [Abm] gets big
because I think it is going to be very big
I'm going to say, look, he played that for me live
on November 2nd, [Ab] 2017
That was the 9 o'clock version for [Eb] us musicians
_ The recorded version is a little bit polished
I [N] love it
_ That's what I think my listeners like
They like to know what makes a _ musician
So we're learning all about that _ _ _ _ _ _
