That was way before the exodus.
Am C Bm
That was the America that we thought was number one,
G D Am
thought would overcome, thought would never die.

'Cause when things were crumbling, we had no camaraderie,
G D Am
just a faith someone would save us from despondence.

We called it America, whoa.
Am C D
We called it America, whoa.

We called it America, whoa.
