[Verse]
G
I'm chasin' down a memory of the way that things used to be
C
Kids playin' underneath an old street light, knowin' they were safe when they laid down at night
G D C
I'm lookin' for something, I ain't seen in a while
G
I'm lookin' for a factory where a man can feed his family
C G
Not worried about them movin' it south, closin' the doors and shuttin' her down to- morrow
D C G
I'm lookin' for A- merica
[Chorus]
G
The land of the free and the home of the brave seems like I just woke up one day
C G
And it was gone, long gone
F C
But I know in my heart it's still out there, can somebody please tell me where
G D C
I'm lookin' for A- merica
G
I'm searchin' for an old church steeple where inside you'll find people
C G
Who live their lives unashamed and they ain't afraid to say God's name out- loud
D C G
Yeah, I'm lookin' for A- merica
[Chorus]
G
The land of the free and the home of the brave seems like I just woke up one day
C G
And it was gone, long gone
F C
But I know in my heart it's still out there, can somebody please tell me where
G D C
I'm lookin' for A- merica
(Bm) | (C) | (D) | (D) |

I'm out here lookin?f for the truth, a few folks to waive the red, white and blue
C G
Who still believe freedom isn't free and I guess it's up to you and me to find it
D C D C
Yeah, we've got to find it, 'cause we're lookin' for
[Chorus]
G
The land of the free and the home of the brave seems like I just woke up one day

But I know in my heart it's still out there, can somebody please tell me where
