When morning comes to America
- Jonas Fjeld
Capo 3. bånd
My [am]father would [C]shower for w[G]ork every d[am]ay
He[F] shaved by the[G] ol' ra[am]dio
We' d listen in[C] bed for that[G] rythm each[am] day
Wonder how[F] one man could[G] sink down t[am]hat low
Then my[am] cousine brough[C]t money from[G] worlds far[am]e away
With[F] colors and [G]strange sounded[am] names
And I search like a [C]sailor to[G] find where they[am] lied
promissin' [F]myself I would[G] go there some[am] day
My [F]grandfather [G]gave me an[C] ol' rad[am]io
Who [F]played forein[G] stations from[C] crystals tha[am]t gloves
And [Dm]just like a comet [F]ready to[am] apair
I [Dm]knew it shines much[F] brighter in that new [am]atmosphere
When [F]morning [C]comes to[G] Amerik[am]a
Solo vers
A [am]mother [C]awekens some[G]where in the [am]west
a [F]child con[G]tends from her [am]breast
Her [am]husband sone[C] joins her and wal[G]k down the [am]stair
findin' her a [F]ribbon to [G]come back her [am]hair
My [F]grandfather [G]gave me an[C] ol' rad[am]io
Who [F]played forein[G] stations from[C] crystals tha[am]t gloves
[am]I knew it shin[F]es much brighter in [C]that new atmosphere
When [F]morning[C] comes t[G]o Am[C]erika[am]
When [F]morning comes t[G]o Am[C]erika[am]
