(see further down). For timing, listen to
the song.

his wife stood there beside him
she was quiet and they both were proud
I gave them room but was close enough
that i heard him when he said outloud

this was my country
and this was my song
somewhere in the middle there
though it started badly and it's ending wrong

this was my country
this frightful and this angry land
but it's my right if the worst of it
                C              D                           G    C G (4x)
might still somehow make me a better man

the sun is unforgiving
and there's nobody who'would choose this town
but we've squandered so much of our good will
that there's nowhere else will have us now

we're pushing line at the picture show
for cool air and a chance to see
a vision of ourselves portrayed
as younger and braver and humble and free

this was our country
this was our song
somewhere in the middle there
though it started badly and it's ending wrong

this was our country
this frightful and this angry land
but it's my right if the worst of it
                                                                G   C G
might still somehow make me a better man
