[Pre-Chorus]
A Dwise man was telling stories to Gme
about the Aplaces he had been to and the Gthings that had Dseen
[Chorus]
A quDiet voice is singing something to Gme
An Aage old song 'bout the home of the brave in this Gland here of the Dfree,
One Gtime one Anight in AmeriDca
[Verse 1]
A Dlady dressed in white with the man she loves
Standing along the side of their pick up Gtruck
A Dshot rang out in the Gnight
Just when Deverything seemed Gright
Another Dheadline written Adown in AmeriDca
[Verse 2]
The Dguy that lived next door in three o five
took the kids to the park and disappeared 'bout half past Gnine
DWho will ever Gknow how Dmuch she loved them Gso
DThat dark night aAlone in AmeriDca
[Chorus]
A quDiet voice is singing something to Gme
An Aage old song 'bout the brave in this Gland here of the Dfree,
One Gtime one Anight in AmeriDca
[Verse 3]
DFour small boys playing ball in the parking lot
A preacher, a teacher, and the other became a Gcop
A Dcar skidded into the Grain
Making the Dlast little one a Gsaint
DOne more light goes Aout in AmeriDca
[Verse 4]
A Dyoung girl tosses a coin in the wishing well
She hopes for a heaven while for her there's just this Ghell
She Dgave away her Glife to beDcome somebody's Gwife
ADnother wish unAanswered in AmeriDca
[Bridge]
APeople having so much faith
Die too soon while Gall the rest come Dlate
We Awrite a song that no one sings
On a cold black stone where a Glasting peace will finally Abring
[Solo]
A A G

[Verse 5]
The Dsunlight plays upon my window pane
I wake up to a world that's still the Gsame
My Dfather said to be Gstrong
That a Dgood man could never do Gwrong
In a Ddream I had last Anight in AmeriDca
[Pre-Chorus]
A Dwise man was telling stories to Gme
about the Aplaces he had been to and the Gthings that had Dseen
[Chorus]
A quDiet voice is singing something to Gme
An Aage old song 'bout the brave in this Gland here of the Dfree,
One Gtime one Anight in AmeriDca
DOne time Gone night Ain America
DOne time Gone night Ain America
