I wasn't planning to play this song, but as I talked of US and that, you know, feeling a bit like a black sheep up here.
[Am] This is the newest song I've written, and I [G#] was reading a little bit of Woody Guthrie, and I don't remember which tragedy exactly I started writing [E] this off of.
[D]
I was out there, like Irish is [N] saying, I love my country.
I think as musicians and touring musicians, we get to know all the little pockets of our homes.
You know, we don't just know the town we grew up in, but we know what the west feels like, what the south feels like.
We get to really move around and know what the people feel like.
We get a good feel for what you're like.
I like how you all clap together at the same time out there.
It's pretty great.
In the US, you know, sometimes you think it's just on TV, or it's just [E] angry people yelling.
Anyway, [C#] this song is coming out of love of my country, and [G] I hope you'll enjoy [E]
it.
[A]
[E]
It's sad just to see the color of them.
[A] How can a sidewalk stream [C#m] drop around [E] the blue?
[B] Where [A] is the heart of my country?
[E]
Flying over a cloud on my feet, you can walk me round.
[A] Every mile cut up into [C#m] squares of green [E] and brown.
Like a 12-ton finish, like a fiddle singing a lull in lonesome sounds.
[C#m] See the land before a black gold [E] and heavy clouds.
[B] Where [A] is the heart of my country [E] now?
[B] Where is [A] [E] my country now?
[A] [E]
[A]
[E]
Going through the sky, we whisper down highway birds in a church choir.
[A] The sun set down [E] in the grass like wildfire.
A young horse runs at the fence line just to test his own desire.
[A] Plastic bags are prayer flags, the wind caught on the wire.
[B] Tell me where [A] is the heart of my country?
[E] [B] Where is [E] the [A] heart?
[B] Where,
[A] [B]
where is [A] the heart of my country [E] now?
