lirik lagu eric bogle - somewhere in america
across the north dakota hills the twilit road unwinds,
e a e b7 e
the setting sun sprays showers of gold across the dark green pines.
e a e b7
the evening shadows change from grey to an ever deepening blue,
e a e b7 e
and i’m somewhere in america, half a world away from you.

2. with sixteen towns behind me, and sixteen more to go,
e a e b7 e
i’ve long since stopped believing in the romance of the road.
e a e b7
though friends and kind hearts wait for me in the town i’m heading to,
e a e b7 e
i’m somewhere in america, half a world away from you.
e a b7 e
and the road goes on and on and on,
e a b7 e
the road goes on and o….n and on.
e a e b7
3. and here and there along the road, welcoming and bright,
e a e b7 e
the lights from home and farmstead pierce the dark dakota night.
e a e b7
their brightness shines on others’ lives, their welcome’s for their own,
e a e b7 e
and i’m somewhere in america, half a world away from home.
+ e – a – e – b7 – e
e a e b7
4. but, well, you know, i love this life, the endless road’s the stage,
e a e b7 e
that music’s a fever in the blood, a wild bird in the cage.
e a e b7
you and i let that wild bird fly, its bright dreams to pursue,
e a e b7 e
now i’m somewhere in america, half a world away from you.
e a b7 e
and the road goes on and on and on,
e a b7 e
and the road goes on and o….n and on.
e a e b7
5. across the north dakota hills the twilit road unwinds,
e a e b7 e
the setting sun sprays showers of gold across the dark green pines.
e a e b7
the evening shadows change from grey to an ever deepening blue,
e a e b7 e
and i’m somewhere in america, half a world away from you.
e a e b7 a – e
yes, i’m somewhere in america, half a world away from you.
