Lee Greenwood – Proud To Be An American (V. 2) chords

Intro: D A  | G |

        DIf tomorrow all the things were gone
    G  I'd worked for all my life,
      EmAnd I had to start again
             C              Awith just my children and my wife,
     D              I'd thank my lucky stars
    G             to be livin' here today.
          C                    Cause the flag still stands for freedom
            G     And they can't take that away.

(Chorus)
        A   And I'm proud to be an American
         G                DWhere at least I know I'm free
      A   And I won't forget the men who died
    G                    DWho gave that right to me
             G       D                 G                D   And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today
            Em                D   Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land
    G         A       DGod bless the U . S . A

Repeat Intro


DFrom the lakes of Minnesota
GTo the hills of Tennessee
EmAcross the plains of Texas
     C             AFrom sea to shining sea
DFrom Detroit down to Houston
EAnd New York to LA
EmWell there's pride in every American heart
GAnd its time we stand and say
