A C#m Bm E A C#m Bm E [Verse 1] A If tomorrow all the things were gone D I'd worked for all my life, G And I had to start again Bm E With just my family by my side A I'd thank my lucky stars Bm F#m to be livin' here today. Bm Cause the flag still stands for freedom F#m D And they can't take that away. [Chorus] E And I'm proud to be an American D A Where at least I know I'm free E And I won't forget the men who died D A Who gave that right to me F#m A D A And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today D A Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land D E A God bless the USA [Interlude] C#m Bm E A C#m Bm E [Verse 2] A From the lakes of Minnesota D To the hills of Tennessee G Across the plains of Texas Bm E From sea to shining sea A From Detroit down to Houston Bm F#m And New York to A Bm Well there's pride in every American heart F#m D And its time we stand and say [Chorus] E That I'm proud to be an American D A Where at least I know I'm free E And I won't forget the men who died D A Who gave that right to me F#m A D A And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today D A Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land D E F#m D God bless the USA (x2) [Outro] E And I'm proud to be an American D A Where at least I know I'm free E And I won't forget the men who died D A Who gave that right to me F#m A D A And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today D A Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land D E A God bless the USA
