This is my American pray. _ _ _

_ [F] _ This is [Am] no time to [G] dream. _ _

_ _ [F] _ And this is the [Am] ground that [Dm] _ _ keeps our feet from getting [F] wet.
And this is the [Am] sky over [G] our head. _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ And what you [Am] see _ _ [Dm] _ _ depends on where you stand.

_ _ _ _ [F] _ And these are the [Am] hands.
_ _ [D] _ _ What are we going to build with [F] them?
And this is [Am] the church you [G] can't see. _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ _ Give me [Am] your tired, _ _ [D] _ your poor and huddled [F] masses.
You know [Am] they're yearning to [G] breathe free. _

[F] _ _ _ [Am] A long life, long as ever [G] has its place.
[C] And I'm not concerned about that [F] now.
I _ just want to [Am] do God's will.
And he's [G] allowed me to walk the mountain.
_ [C] _ _ _ _
[F] I see [Am] the promised land. _
[G] _ _ _ [C] And I want you to know that _
