| common dream | D |

| unite | G |

| The self same courage resolute you feel and | H |
| understand | T |
| Is throbbing in the breasts of men throughout | U |
| this mighty land | T |
| Not somewhere in America but everywhere to day | A |
| For justice and for liberty all free men work | V |
| and pray | A |
