[D] [G] [A]
It's coming through a hole in the air,
[D] [A] [D]
from those nights in Tiananmen Square.
[G]
It's coming from the feel
that this ain't exactly real,
[D]
or it's real, but it ain't exactly there.
[F#]
From the wars against disorder,
[Bm]
from the sirens night and day,
[F#]
from the fires of the homeless,
[Bm]
from the ashes of the gay:
[A] [G] [D]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
[D] [G] [A]
It's coming through a crack in the wall;
[D] [A] [D]
on a visionary flood of alcohol;
[G]
from the staggering account
of the Sermon on the Mount
[D]
which I don't pretend to understand at all.
[F#]
It's coming from the silence
[Bm]
on the dock of the bay,
[F#]
from the brave, the bold, the battered
[Bm]
heart of Chevrolet:
[A] [G] [D]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
[D] [G] [A]
It's coming from the sorrow in the street,
[D] [A] [D]
the holy places where the races meet;
[G]
from the homicidal bitchin'
that goes down in every kitchen
[D]
to determine who will serve and who will eat.
[F#]
From the wells of disappointment
[Bm]
where the women kneel to pray
[F#]
for the grace of God in the desert here
[Bm]
and the desert far away:
[A] [G] [D]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
[A] [G]
Sail on, sail on
[D]
O mighty Ship of State!
[A]
To the Shores of Need
[G]
Past the Reefs of Greed
[D]
Through the Squalls of Hate
[A] [G] [D]
Sail on, sail on, sail on, sail on.
[D] [G] [A]
It's coming to America first,
[D] [A] [D]
the cradle of the best and of the worst.
[G]
It's here they got the range
and the machinery for change
[D]
and it's here they got the spiritual thirst.
[F#]
It's here the family's broken
[Bm]
and it's here the lonely say
[F#]
that the heart has got to open
[Bm]
in a fundamental way:
[A] [G] [D]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
[D] [G] [A]
It's coming from the women and the men.
[D] [A] [D]
O baby, we'll be making love again.
[G]
We'll be going down so deep
the river's going to weep,
[D]
and the mountain's going to shout Amen!
[F#]
It's coming like the tidal flood
[Bm]
beneath the lunar sway,
[F#]
imperial, mysterious,
[Bm]
in amorous array:
[A] [G] [D]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A.
[A] [G]
Sail on, sail on ...
[D] [G] [A]
I'm sentimental, if you know what I mean
[D] [A] [D]
I love the country but I can't stand the scene.
[G]
And I'm neither left or right
I'm just staying home tonight,
[D]
getting lost in that hopeless little screen.
[F#]
But I'm stubborn as those garbage bags
[Bm]
that Time cannot decay,
[F#]
I'm junk but I'm still holding up
[Bm]
this little wild bouquet:
[A] [G] [D]
Democracy is coming to the U.S.A
