[G]Took a trip to San Francisco
[C]All our friends said we would jive
[G]Didn't work, so I left for Fresno
[D]It was quite the [D#dim]scenic drive
[Em]Pulled over to wat[D]ch the children in the [C]park
We used [D]to [Em]only worry [D]for them after [C]dark [D]
I'm still [Em]looking for my [D]own [C]version of America [D]
[Em]One without the [D]gun, where the [C]flag can freely [D]fly [D#dim]
[Em]No bombs in the [D]sky, only fire[C]works when you and I [Cm]collide
It's just a dream I had in [G]mind [D/F#] [Em]
[C]It's just a [Cm]dream I had in [G]mind [D/F#] [Em]
[C]It's just a [Cm]dream I had in mind
[G]I flew back to New York City
[G]Missed that Hudson River line
[G]Took a train up to Lake Placid
[D]That's another [D#dim]place and time, where
[Em]I used to go to dri[D]ve-ins and listen to the [C]blues
So ma[D]ny [Em]things that I think [D]twice about before I [C]do, [D]no no
I'm still [Em]looking for my [D]own ver[C]sion of America [D]
[Em]One without the [D]gun, where the [C]flag can freely [D]fly [D#dim]
[Em]No bombs in the [D]sky, only fire[C]works when you and I [Cm]collide
It's just a dream I had in [G]mind [D/F#] [Em]
[C]It's just a [Cm]dream I had in [G]mind [D/F#] [Em]
[C]It's just a [D]dream I had in [G]mind [D/F#] [Em]
[C]It's just a [Cm]dream I had in [G]mind
