Our Country John Mellencamp
[G]Well I can stand beside [D]ideals I think are right
[G]And I can stand beside the [D]idea to stand and fight
[Em]I do believe there's a [D]dream for everyone
[C]This is [D7]our [G]country
[G]There's room enough here for [D]science to live
And there's [G]room enough here for [D]religion to forgive
[Em]And try to understand all the [D]people of this land
[C]This is [D7]our [G]country
Chorus:
From the [C]east coast
To the [G]west coast
Down the [Em]dixie highway back [D]home
[C]This is [D7]our [G]country
[G]That poverty could just [D]another ugly thing
And [G]bigotry would be seen [D]only as obscene
And the [Em]ones that understand help the [D]poor and common man
[C]This is [D7]our [G]country
Chorus:
[G]The dream is still alive some[D]day it will come true
And this [G]country it belongs to [D]folks like me and you
So [Em]let the voice of freedom [D]sing out through this land
[C]This is [D7]our [G]country
Chorus (2X)
Woody would love it!
