===============================

Verse 1

I wake up eve-vry mor-ning and watch 

the daily news. 

Is it red, blue, left or right?

Some times I’m so confused

They got a pill for this,  a pill for that to wash the blues away,

I guess it pays to ad ver-tise, Boy it's your lucky day

Passions lies in tear-filled eyes from sea

to shining sea 

What happened to the skies of blue, the purple majesty?

Ameri-ca the beautiful what color is the day?

Red, White and Blue America, I dream of a better day

America the beautiful, don't let it slip away. ooh oh oh

Verse 2

I close my eyes and i can see soft hills of rolling green.

In God we trust, we can, we must have faith if we believe,

When amber was the color of bright fields of golden grain

and not a sign to remind us, a child is lost again.

Passions lies in tear-filled eyes from sea

to shining sea 

What happened to the skies of blue, the purple majesty?

Ameri-ca the beautiful, what color is the day?

Red, White and Blue America , I dream of a better day.

Ameri-ca the beautiful, don't let it slip away

Bridge

Now I lay me down to sleep , I pray my soul to keep.

Be it black white yellow, red or brown, have mercy on us please.

If I should die before i wake, I pray my soul has wings.

To fly above the land I love, a place where freedom rings.

Ameri-ca the beautiful, what color is the day?

Red, White and blue America I dream of a better day

America my beautiful don't let it slip away

don't let it don't let it slip away

don't let it slip away
