Heart of America Lyrics & Tabs by Donnie Munro
Heart of America
guitar chords lyrics
I see the flags in the morning rain as they
Flutter out the road at the start of a new day
Where in the light of the morning runs
Sharon Springs and the old hotel feel my heart rise
With the hope they felt on their journey
When they moved on to glory
They dared to dream their dreams
In the heart of America
They dared to face their fears
In the heart of America
From Europes shores where they fled in droves as they
Left darklands and broken homes for a new dawn
We're awaiting the Angel
Ellis Island stand in line hide the weakness in this child of mine
As she stumbles out in search of a reason
To put out all her dreams
In the heart of America
To search amongst her fears
In the heart of America
To end the veil of tears
In the heart of America
Forgiving those that ever brought her down
The windscreen wipers slappin' time Bobby sang the blues as
We stepped out on the line
We stepped out in the line
Empty faces heavy loads station wagons dusty roads
As we move on, right on out to the Prairie
Where they planted fields of hope
In the heart of America
Where the seeds they've sown won't grow
In the heart of America
The dustbowl thet we've known
In the heart of America
Where a man must make hie own way through this world
