More Than America: From Here to Eternity the Musical Lyrics by Tim Rice Music by Stuart Brayson N.B (The 'Em's in the verses can be substituted for 'G's & the 'Bm's in the third line of the verses can be substituted for 'D's). Verse 1:

I ^Dnever knew a moment, could ^Cclose on me like this, To ^Bmfool me, this could ^Abe forever ^Dmore. Yet ^Dsomehow all my confidence, and ^Csomehow all my dreams, Are ^Bmflooding back like ^Awaves upon a ^Dshore.

I ^Gdon't know where we're ^Dgoing, But I ^Gknow the road too ^Dwell. The ^Bmsecrecy, the ^Genchantment the ^Ahell.

Instrumental: D, G x2 (Alo-aloha-aloha, from Waikiki) x2 Verse 2:

There are ^Dmoments in a lifetime, very ^Emsudden, very ^Afew, When your ^Bmlife's laid out before you, reaching ^Gfar into the ^Ablue, Don't look ^F#mback; that part is ^Bmover, and to^Gmorrow's crazy ^Atoo, And our ^Emworld is much ^Amore than A - ^Gme^A - ri - ^Dca.

Instrumental: D, G x2 (Alo-aloha-aloha, from Waikiki) x2 Verse 3:

I could ^Dstay wrapped up in my ^Emsafe and cosy ^Ashell, Never ^Bmventure over borders, never ^Grisk another's ^Ahealth, But it's ^F#mhard to be a ^Bmstranger on a ^Gcrowded carou^Asel, When your ^Emhome is much ^Amore than A - ^Gme^A - ri - ^Dca.

Chorus:

More than A^Gme - ri^Dca, God bless A^Gme - ri^Bmca But it's ^Emfar a^Bmway, it's a ^Emli- ^Afetime a^Dway.

Instrumental: D, G x2 (Alo-aloha-aloha, from Waikiki) x2 Verse 4:

I ^Dhad my game plan sorted, a^Emround to show my ^Away(?). No e^Bmmotional distraction, that ^Gis until to^Aday, Who would ^F#mthink we'd think we'd find an ^Bmanswer, on an ^Gisland far a^Away, Where we ^Emfound we need ^Amore than A - ^Gme^A - ri - ^Dca.

Chorus:

More than A^Gme - ri^Dca, more than A^Gme - ri^Bmca It's so f^Emar aw^Bmay, it's a l^Emi- f^Aetime aw^Day. x2

Instrumental: D, G x2 (Alo-aloha-aloha, from Waikiki) x2 D, G x2 Chorus:

More than A^Gme - ri^Dca, more than A^Gme - ri^Bmca It's so ^Emfar a^Bmway, it's a l^Emi- fe - ^Gtime ^Aa - ^Dway.
