GSomewhere after midnight, somewhere before noon
CI looked out on the horizon and I saw the risin' moonG  
I heard a train whistle blowin' in the back of my brain
Said they thought the clouds were coverin', and they expected rain
Chorus:
It's been a Flong Ctime Gcomin', it's been a Flong time Ccarrying Gon
If we don’t Fget ourCselves toGgether we're gonna Fbe a Clong time Ggone
I am not a warrior,I am not a pacifist
I'm firmly planted in middle America, just trying to do my best
But when an international storm,Threatens my home or family
There's nothin' in this life that will stop me, from defending my liberty
Chorus

Somewhere after midnight, somewhere before noon

C G

I looked out on the horizon and I saw the risin' moon

I heard a train whistle blowin' in the back of my brain

Said they thought the clouds were coverin', and they expected rain

Chorus:

F C G F C G

It's been a long time comin', it's been a long time carrying on

F C G F C G

If we don’t get ourselves together we're gonna be a long time gone

I am not a warrior,I am not a pacifist

I'm firmly planted in middle America, just trying to do my best

But when an international storm,Threatens my home or family

There's nothin' in this life that will stop me, from defending my liberty
