A augmentedA great patriotic tune for our troops.

Capo 2

Verse:
      D MajorD            G+G           D MajorD       A augmentedA
Well he was one of the millions who signed up to defend us long ago in 1941
         D MajorD               G+G
when they sucker punched us in Pearl Harbor he fought under MacArthur
   D MajorD      A augmentedA       D MajorD
Seventeen with an Army Thompson gun


       D MajorD              G+G
Well he stormed a lot of beaches slept in jungles with the leaches
    D MajorD              A augmentedA
He saw things young man should never see
       D MajorD                  G+G
And when they shot him in the shoulder he got back up and he marched forward
    D MajorD         A augmentedA      D MajorD
Left a lot of brothers dead in Kawagalie

Chorus:
   G+G       A augmentedA         D MajorD
If it wasn't for the good lord and the man
        B minorBm       A augmentedA        G+G
There wouldn't be a breath of freedom in this land
            A augmentedA      D MajorD    A augmentedA   G+G
And I see people on my T.V. taking shots at Uncle Sam
                   A augmentedA
I hope they always remember why they can
      G+G        A augmentedA            G+G     A augmentedA
Cause we'd all be speaking German living under the flag of Japan
   G+G       A augmentedA         B minorBm
If it wasn't for the good lord and the man
   G+G       A augmentedA         D MajorD
If it wasna^??t for the good lord and the man

Well I'm the grandson of a soldier and I'd fight the whole world over
if duty called and freedoms on the line
but thanks to the greatest generation and the ones still fighting for our nation
I've never had to kill for my way of life


CHORUS X2

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man
        B minorBm       A augmentedA        G+G
There wouldn't be a breath of freedom in this land
            A augmentedA      D MajorD    A augmentedA   G+G
And I see people on my T.V. taking shots at Uncle Sam
                   A augmentedA
I hope they always remember why they can
      G+G        A augmentedA            G+G     A augmentedA
Cause we'd all be speaking German living under the flag of Japan
   G+G       A augmentedA         B minorBm
If it wasn't for the good lord and the man
   G+G       A augmentedA         D MajorD
If it wasna^??t for the good lord and the man
