Proud To Be An American chords by Lee Greenwood

Chords with lyrics

D MajorD
If tomorrow all the things were gone


  G+G
I'd worked for all my life,


   E minorEm
And I had to start again


       C majorC       A augmentedA
with just my children and my wife,

   D MajorD
I'd thank my lucky stars


  E MajorE
to be livin' here today.


     E minorEm
Cause the flag still stands for freedom


      G+G
And they can't take that away.


    A augmentedA
And I'm proud to be an American


     G+G        D MajorD
Where at least I know I'm free


   A augmentedA
And I won't forget the men who died


  G+G          D MajorD
Who gave that right to me


       B minorBm    D MajorD         G+G        D MajorD
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today

      E minorEm        D MajorD
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land


  G+G     A augmentedA    D MajorD
God bless the U . S . A augmentedA


Repeat Intro

D MajorD
From the lakes of Minnesota

To the hills of Tennessee


E minorEm
Across the plains of Texas


   C majorC       A augmentedA
From sea to shining sea


D MajorD
From Detroit down to Houston

Well there's pride in every American heart

And its time we stand and say
