[Intro] E E E A [Verse 1]
God of my Efathers EHuddled in the harbor EEvery man an ocean from his hAome Their caF#mptors could not kEeep them When they hF#meard the drums of fEreedom The dF#mream of a kiEngdom In a laEnd they've never knBown And GEod of my fathers StraEngers in this counAtry PilEgrims on these dusty roAads B F#mAcross the grEeat plains In the beF#mllies of the stEeel trains F#mTo stake a nEew claim In that wiElderness of hBope
[Chorus]
ALike my fatEhers I am looBking for a hEome LooAking for a hEome beyond the sBea So bEe my God and guBide me Till I lAie beneath the hills Then let the grF#meat God of my faEthers Be the grAeat GodE of my BchildreEn still
E A X3 A A [Verse 2]
EGod of my grandfathers EGone these many years now EI guess they're shining like the sAun F#mAnd I envision tEhem F#mGrinning at the finEish And they smF#mile and they smEile 'Cause they lBove to see me run
[Chorus]
ALike my fatEhers I am looBking for a hEome LooAking for a hEome beyond the sBea So bEe my God and guBide me Till I lAie beneath the hills Then let the grF#meat God of my faEthers Be the grAeat GodE of my Bchildren sG#tilAl, yeEah G# A F# B (hold B) Whoah, whoah
[Bridge]
ENow we're counting stars and counting sand ELittle feet and little hands EWe're counting jAoys F#mWe pray you'll know them As you kAnew us when you wove us F#mAs you hold us AHold them, please hBold them
[Chorus]
LAike their faEther, they are looBking for a hoEme LAooking for a hoEme beyond the sBea So Ebe their God and guiBde them Till they lAie beneath these hills And let the grF#meat God of their faEther Be the F#mgreat God of their chiEldren Let the gF#mreat God of my fatEhers Be the gAreat God of my cBhildren stEill
