     D              F#m7 
If tomorrow all the things were gone 
    Em 
I'd worked for all my life, 
      C 
And I had to start again 
             Em              A 
with just my children and my wife, 
    D              F#m7 
I'd thank my lucky stars 
      Em7           Bm 
to be livin' here today. 
          Em                    C 
Cause the flag still stands for freedom 
         Bm                      G 
And they can't take that away. 
 

        A 
And I'm proud to be an American 
         G                D 
Where at least I know I'm free 
      A 
And I won't forget the men who died 
    G                  D 
Who gave that right to me 
             Bm       D                 G                D 
And I gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today 
            G                D 
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land 
    G         A D 
God bless the USA
