{c: }
[F] In A-[Dm7]merica, you'll get [G7sus4] food to eat.
[C7] Won't have to run through the jungle,
And [F] scuff up your feet.
[F] You'll just [Dm7] sing about Jesus
and drink [G7sus4] wine all day;
[C7] It's great to be an American. [F] [C7]
{c: }
[F] Ain't no [Dm7] lions or tigers, ain't no [G7sus4] mamba snake,
[C7] Just the sweet watermelon and the [F] buckwheat cake.
[Dm7] Everybody is as happy as a [G7sus4] man can be,
[C7] Climb aboard little wog, sail a-[F]way with me.
{c: }
Sail a-[F]way, [F7], sail a-[Bb]way,
We will [F]cross the mighty [Dm7] ocean, into Charleston [G7] Bay. [C7]
Sail a-[F]way, [F7], sail a-[Bb]way,
We will [F]cross the [Dm7] mighty [G7] ocean, into [C7] Charleston [F] Bay.
[Dm7] [G7sus4] [C7]
[F] In A-[Dm7]merica, every [G7sus4] man is free,
[C7] To take care of his home and his [F] family.
[F] You'll be as [Dm7] happy as a [G7sus4] monkey in a monkey tree;
[C7] You're all gonna be an American. [F] [C7]
{c: }
Sail a-[F]way, [F7], sail a-[Bb]way,
We will [F] cross the mighty [Dm7] ocean, into Charleston [G7] Bay. [C7]
Sail a-[F]way, [F7], sail a-[Bb]way,
We will [F] cross the [Dm7] mighty [G7] ocean, into [C7] Charleston [F] Bay. [Dm7] [G7sus4] [C7]
