Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]From the ice eclipse of Iceland
I've traveled o 'er the land
Through the darkness of Greenland
To the islands of Japan
I've met with many people
All kinds of them you see
But a brotherhood of America,
my [C]homeland where I'm [G]free
I've seen the hot Pacific,
the ocean wide and deep
I've been in old Korea
with its mud up to my knees
I've walked the streets of China,
seen all there is to see
But I'd rather have America,
my [C]homeland where I'm [G]free
I've sailed the wide Atlantic
to France and Germany
The beauty there in Paris
doesn't do a thing for me
I made my way to England
and on to Italy
But I'd rather have America,
my [C]homeland where I'm [G]free
Let Iceland have its icy cliffs
and 45 below
Let Greenland keep its darkness
and the freezing winds that blow
Don't put me off in China
or Korea's muddy land
Let Paris keep her beauty
and the [C]islands [G]I d[C]on't want
[G]Germany, [C]France or Italy,
[G]I'd rather have America,
my [C]homeland where I'm [G]free.
I'd rather have America,
my [C]homeland where I'm [G]free.
