Intro: D F#m7 Em7 A D F#m7 Em7 A
If to[D]morrow all the [F#m7]things were gone
I'd [Em]worked for all my life,
And I [C]had to start again
with just my [Em]children and my [A]wife,
I'd [D]thank my lucky [F#m7]stars
to be [Em7]livin' here to[Bm]day.
Cause the [Em]flag still stands for [C]freedom
And they [Bm]can't take that away.[G]
And I'm [A]proud to be an American
Where at [G]least I know I'm [D]free
And I [A]won't forget the men who died
Who [G]gave that right to [D]me
And I gladly [Bm]stand up [D]next to you and de[G]fend her still to[D]day
Cause there [G]ain't no doubt I [D]love this land
God [G]bless the [A]US[D]A

>From the[D] lakes of Minn[F#m]esota
To the [Em]hills of Tennessee
A[C]cross the plains of Texas
>From[Em] sea to shining[A] sea
>From[D] Detroit down to[F#m7] Houston
And [Em7]New York to L[Bm]A
Well there's [Em]pride in every A[C]merican heart
And its [Bm]time we stand and say[G]
That I'm [A]proud to be an American
Where at [G]least I know I'm [D]free
And I [A]won't forget the men who died
