[Verse]
D
I first came to this country
In the Spring 19-four
G D/F#
A lonely Jew from Warsaw
Em7 A
Never here before
We sailed into the harbor
On the 17th of May
G D/F#
I disembarked with other Poles
A7 D G D
Bound for the USA
[Verse]
They looked me up, they looked me down
D/F#
And much to my surprise
They asked about my family
They checked my mouth, my eyes
They put a chalk mark on my coat
My papers stamped and clear
Was shuffled through an exit
And I suddenly was here
[Chorus]
In America
Your torchlight shines afar
In America
Like a shining, distant star
Bm A G
Here is where I wait to take my place
D/F# A
Here, in this land of hope and grace
In America

[Verse]
D A/Db
I got a job, got married
Had three kids of our own "
G D/F#
Thirty-five years came and went
This place is now my home
D A
Poland’s just a memory
G D
Half a world away
But still my heart was torn apart
With what I read today
[Verse]
G
Nazis marching in the street
D/F#
And fires everywhere
The Polish army vanquished
G A
Terror in the air
D A
Too many to remember
We’ll never know their names
G D
People who look just like me
Are loaded on to trains
[Chorus]
But here in America
The torchlight shines afar
In America
Like a shining, distant star
Bm A G
Here is where I’ve come to take my place
D/F# A
Here, in this land of hope and grace
In America
[Verse]
D A
It all seems like a nightmare now
G D/F#
Although we know it’s true
G D/F#
The horrors people have endured
The evil some can do
To me now in these later days
The lessons are so clear
G D/F#
It cannot be forgotten
And it cannot happen here
[Outro]
In America
Our torchlight shines afar
In America
Like a shining, distant star
Bm A G
Here is where we’ve come to take our place
D/F# A
Here, in this land of hope and grace
In America
