    Em        C       G      D 
The furnace burns in steel town 
 Em           C                G         D 
Big business came and tried to shut em down 
  Em            C              G             D 
Workers got together and they bought that mill

They're making steel in Pittsburgh still 
 Em         C           G       D 
The family farm down in Indiana 
  Em          C                G           D  
The bank's foreclosin' just because they can 
  Em           C                 G              D 
The farmer can't do nothin' 'bout another drought

(VERSE 2) 
  Em          C         G          D 
The wheels in Detroit keep on turnin' 
  Em          C          G            D 
A blue collar lesson there for the learnin' 
   Em                    C            G         D 
The throttle drives you anywhere no matter how far 
        C              D     
Just never give up on who you are

 (LEAD) 
 Em           C          G       D 
Right down the middle of America 
 Em           C          G         D 
Where her heart beats strong and true 
 Em          C      G       D 
Look up and just open your eyes 
     C                         D        
The flag still waves and the eagle still flies.
