American Child

Written by John Denver

	  		D - - Esus - E - F - - G - - A - 
Goin up to A G las D ka A 
Up to the G land of the D Midnight A Sun 
Where the G whale and the polar bear run oer the F icy blue C 
sea 
A Goin up to A G las D ka A 
Up to the G north and the D pioneer A life 
Where G courage and strength still survive 
And a F man can be C free   D 
 
G American Child does the call of the wild 
Ever F sing thru the mist of your C dreams 
Does it G fly with the wind when you Gmaj7 waken G7 again 
When itās C gone do you know what it D means 
 
Can you G picture the time when a man had to find 
His own F way through an unbroken C land 
Be G fore the machine changed the Gmaj7 blue and the G7 green 
To C something you canāt under D stand 
 
G American Child theres a burning inside you 
That F calls you away through the C cold 
To G come back again to Gmaj7 all that youāve G7 been 
Canāt you C see that itās time to come D home 
 
To the G flowers and trees and the rivers and the seas 
And the F earth whoās the mother of C all 
A G promise once made will it Gmaj7 shine will it G7 fade 
Will we C rise with the vision or A fall 
 
Goin up to  A G las D ka A 
Up to the G land of the D Midnight A Sun 
Where the G whale and the polar bear run oer the F icy blue C 
sea 
 A Goin up to A G las D ka A 
Up to the G north and the D pioneer A life 
Where G courage and strenght still survive 
And a F man can be C free 
Men can be D free 
 
Goin up to A G las D ka 
Goin up to A G las D ka 
Goin up to A G las D ka
