VERSE:
    F         C
I wear boots just like my daddy
     F          C
They`ve seen their share of dirt
     F       C
I ain`t looking for a handout
      G      C
`Cause my hands still work

    F        C
Got a place out in the country
      F        C
A piece o` land, a peace o` mind
       F       C
Well I ain`t got a pile of money
      G   C
But what I got is mine


CHORUS:
    Am     F    C   G
`Cause I`ve worked hard, put in my time
 Am     F    C     G
Chased the stars and earned my stripes
  Am   F    C   G
And I will fight until I die
  F     C    G   C
To keep this American dream alive


VERSE:
    F        C
Got a pretty girl that loves me
        F        C
She`s got my heart and got my back
      F       C
I got the good Lord up above me
      G    C
To keep it all on track

     F          C
I got a boy that looks just like me
      F      C
He watches everything I do
     F         C
So if he sees how hard I`m trying
   G    C
Maybe he will too


CHORUS:
    Am     F    C   G
`Cause I`ve worked hard, put in my time
 Am     F    C     G
Chased the stars and earned my stripes
  Am   F    C   G
And I will fight until I die
  F     C    G   F
To keep this American dream alive


INSTRUMENTAL:
C G Am F C G


BREAK:
    F         C
We all get to write our story
    F      C
And be who we wanna be
       F        C
But those of us who fly Old Glory
     G     C
Know it don`t come free.


CHORUS:
Am    F    C    G
We work hard, put in our time
 Am      F    C      G
Chase those stars and earned our stripes
  Am    F    C   G
And we will fight until we die
  F     C    G   Am
To keep this American dream alive


OUTRO:
       F     C    G   F F C   F C   F C
Yeah, let`s keep this American dream alive //// // //// // /
