Thank you so much.
_ _ [A] Over 100 years ago, [C]
a little [A#] girl, 12 years of age, boarded [Dm] a train from Kiev, Russia,
_ [C] all the way to [F] Rostov-on-Don, _ [A#] where she boarded the steam ship to take her on a long journey
to [Gm] freedom, to America.
_ _ _ [C] _
Emily Bell is my [Gm] grandmother.
_ She has inspired [C]
everything I've achieved in my life.
_ _ [A#] _ This song is for her.
[F] _ _ _ Ah, _ we've [C] been traveling [F] far, without a home, but not [C] without a [F] star. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
We [F] have a hope that we can hang on to this dream. _
_ _ [G] The boats down the lake, they come to America.
And the sun gets back again, they come to America.
[E] _ _ _ [G] The dreams go far away, on [D] a cloudy night day.
In the [F] eye of the storm, in the [Em] eye of the storm, _ _ _ _
you [G] will see a place, may God [D] there be a place.
Freedom's [F] like burning war, freedom's like [Em] burning war. _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ We've been around the world, they come to America.
Every time that flag's up there, they come to America.
[G] Not a dream became real, they come to America.
Not a dream did, _ _ they come to America.
_ [A] They come to America.
[F#m] They come to America.
[D] They come to [A] America.
[Bm] They come to [A]
America.
_ _ They [F#m] come to America.
Today, _ _ [D] today, [A] _ _ [B] _ today, today,
_ [A] my country's history, _ [F#m] sweet memory,
the _ [D] eyes of, _ [Bm] the eyes of Abraham,
[F] today, _ _ today, _ _ _ today, _ today. _ _
