DWell, (xx0232@1)if you ask me where I come from 
D (xx0232@1)Here's what I tell everyone 
G (320003@1)I was born by God's dear grace 
      D (xx0232@1)In a extra - ordinary place 
           Em (022000@1)              G (320003@1)               D (xx0232@1)Where the Stars and Stripes   and the Eagle flies. 
 
 
D (xx0232@1)It's a big ol' land with countless dreams 
D (xx0232@1)And happiness ain't out of reach. 
      G (320003@1)Hard work pays off the way it should. 
               D (xx0232@1)Ya, I've seen enough to know that we've got it good! 
           Em (022000@1)            ( F#)-G (244322@1)               D (xx0232@1)Where the Stars and Stripes      and the Eagle flies. 
           C (x32010@1)                   G (320003@1)                   D (xx0232@1)There's a lady that stands in a harbor for what we believe. 
               C (x32010@1)                         G (320003@1)And there's a bell that still echoes the price that it cost to 
          

     D (xx0232@1)I pledge allegiance to this flag 
    D (xx0232@1)And if that bothers you, well that's too bad! 
        G (320003@1)But if you got pride and you're proud you do -  
               D (xx0232@1)Hey, we could use some more like me and you. 
           Em (022000@1)            ( F#)-G (244322@1)               D (xx0232@1)Where the Stars and Stripes      and the Eagle flies. 
 
(SHORT INSTRUMENTAL)  

       D (xx0232@1)No, it ain't the only place on earth 
    D (xx0232@1)But it's the only place that I prefer 
    G (320003@1)To love my wife and raise my kids 
          D (xx0232@1)Hey, the same way that my daddy did.
