In America Chords & Lyrics - John Legend

[VERSE 1]
[D#m]In America, in America.
[G#m]I poured my sweat in Amer[A#m]ica
[D#m]This land is my land
[D#m]It's America
[G#m]I broke my back for [A#m]America
[D#m]All of money I make
[D#m]All of these chances I take
[G#m]Just paying my rent in A[A#m]merica
[D#m]Won't just stand around
[G#m]Watch it go down
[D#m]Won't just stand around
[G#m]Watch it go dow[A#m]n

[CHORUS]
[D#m]But maybe it's a long shot
[B]Maybe it's a fantasy
[G#m]We've given it all that we've got
[A#m]Maybe we can live a dream
Oh, oh
[D#m]Can we build a new life was it ever m[B]eant that we...
[G#m]Could make it in America
[A#m]Make it in America

[VERSE 2]
[D#m]In America, in America
[G#m]They say I'm free in A[A#m]merica
[D#m]In America, in America
[G#m]I still can't breath in Am[A#m]erica
[D#m]Watch them squeezing my neck
[D#m]Watch them bullets connect
[G#m]We still gon' fight in America
[D#m]Won't just stand around
[D#m]Can't watch it go down
[D#m]Won't just stand around
[G#m]Watch it go down [A#m]

[CHORUS]
[D#m]But maybe it's a long shot
