Start Jamming...
A song called The [Db] Power and the Glory.
[Ebm]
[Bb] Come on and take a walk with me through this green and growing land.
Walk through the deserts and the mountains [Ebm] and the sand.
Walk through the valleys and the rivers and the [Gb] plains.
Walk through the sun [Ab] and walk through the [Bbm] rain.
For here is a land [Fm] full of power and [Bbm] glory.
Beauty that words [Ab] cannot recall.
[Db] Oh, her power shall [Fm] rest in the strength of her freedom.
Her [Bb]
glory shall rest [Ab] on us all.
[Db] From Kansas, [Ab] from [Bb] Colorado, [Ab] Kansas and the Carolinas too.
Virginia [Bb] to [Ab] Alaska, from the old to [Ebm] the new.
Texas and Ohio [Eb] to the California shore.
[Gb] Tell me who could ask [Ab] for more.
[Bb] For here is a land [Fm] full of power and glory.
[Bb] Beauty that [Ab] words cannot recall.
Oh, [Db] her power shall [Fm] rest in the strength of her [Bbm] freedom.
Her glory shall rest [Ab] on us all.
Yet [Db] we're only as rich as the poorest of the poor.
[Ab] Only as free as a padlocked [Ebm] prison door.
Only as strong as our love for this land.
[Gb] Only as [Ab] tall as we stand.
[Bbm] For here is a land [Fm] full of power and [Bbm] glory.
Beauty that words [Ab] cannot recall.
[Db] Oh, her power shall [Fm] rest in the strength of her freedom.
[Bbm] Her glory shall [Ab] rest on us all.
[Db] But this land is still troubled by men who have to hate.
They twist [Bbm] away our freedom [Ebm]
and twist away our faith.
Law is their weapon, treason is their pride.
[Gb] You can stop [Ab] them if you try.
[Bbm] For here is a [Fm] land full of power and glory.
[Bbm] Beauty that [Ab] words cannot recall.
[Db] Oh, her power shall rest [Fm] in the strength of her freedom.
[Bbm] Her glory shall [Ab] rest on us all.
[Bbm] Yes, her glory [Ab] shall rest on [Db] us all.
