1. If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life,

              Bb                                            Dm                     G

    and I had to start again with just my children and my wife,

C                                                Em               Am

    I'd thank my lucky stars to be livin' here today,

                    Dm                                                     Am                         - F

  cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can't take that awa….y.

And I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free,

           G                                                     F                         C

and I won't forget the men who died who gave that right to me.

                     Am         Em                        F                      C

And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today,

                      F                      C                                   F           G C

‘cause there ain't no doubt I love this la….nd,  God bless the USA !
