Chords for Neil Diamond - America (Live At The Greek Theatre / 2012)

_ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Thank you so much, Los Angeles. _
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ It was almost a hundred years ago
[C] that a little [F] girl _
12 years old
[Bb] Was put on a train in Kiev, Russia and made the journey 1,200 miles to Rotterdam [Gm] in Holland
_ She _ then [F] boarded a ship
[Bb] to make the great voyage to freedom [C] in a place called _ America
_ [F] That _ _ _ _ _ _ little girl
Was my grandmother
_ [Bb] _ _ _
She and her daughter Rose
_ _ Inspired me to achieve
Everything that I've achieved in my life [F] her _ _ _ _ _ _ courage
_ Will never be forgotten
_ It sings in every song I sing _ This one
Is for her _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
We've _ _ _ _ [C] been traveling [F] far
_ _ without [Bb]
a [F] home
_ But not [Bb] without a _ [F] star _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Three
_ Only want to be free _
_ _ We [Bb] [F] huddle close _
_ _ Hang on to that dream
From _ _ _ _ [G] _ the boats and on the planes
_ _ They come into America
_ Never looking back again
_ They come into America
_ [Bm] _ [Em] _ _
Oh
_ You've [D] seen so [G] far away
_ But [C] we're [G] traveling [D] light today _
In the eye [Em] of the [F] storm _ _ _ [G] in the [F] eye of the [Em] storm _
_ _ _ _ _ _ So _ _ you [D] in the [G] shrinky place
_ _ [C] Make up [G] and we'll [D] say our grace
_ _ Freedom's [Em] like [F] burning war _
_ Freedom's [G] [F] like burning [Em] war _
_ _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Everywhere around the world
_ They come into America
[Bb] _ [F] Every time that flags _ unfurl
They come into America
_ _ [G] Got a dream to take a nap
_ _ They come into America
_ Got a dream they come to share
_ They come into America
_ [A] They come into America
[D] [Gbm] They _ come to America
_ [D] They come to America
_ [Bm] They come to America

_ _ [D] _ Of the icing
