Kevin Deal - What I'm Fighting For
Capo 2
[C]President's make s[G]peeches
[Am]Generals make [F]plans
[C]Soldiers say [G]goodbye
[Am]Head to foreign [F]lands
Back home you can hardly tell
There is even a war
Except for politicians
Fighting over what we are fightin for
You can [C]talk of God and [G]Country
Talk of [Am]flag and [F]family
Right [C]now I'm fighting for the [G]man next to me
I [F]know he's fighting for [C]me
Now I am a soldier
And I do not ask for much
I am trained to kill
And I do what I must
Just give me what I need
Tell me where to point my gun
Keep your promises don't forget
About me when I'm done
Chorus
Solo
Now it ain't my job to worry about the politics
Or the poor planning that got us in this fix
I miss my wife and kids and I count every day till i see them
And if I die over here it won't be for no damned Iraqi freedom
Chorus
Now I love my God and Country
Love my flag and family
Right now I'm fighting for the man next to me
I know he's fighting for me
