[Intro] D A/D G/D D A/D G/D [Verse 1]
   D             
If tomorrow all the things were gone

    G/D
I'd worked for all my life,

      Em
And I had to start again

             C              A
With just my family by my side

D             
  I'd thank my lucky stars

Em    F#m            
to be livin' here today.

          Em                    
Cause the flag still stands for freedom

         Bm                      G
And they can't take that away.
[Chorus]
        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

            Em                D/F#
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land

    G         A D
God bless the USA
[Interlude] D A/D G/D D A/D G/D [Verse 2]
         D            
From the lakes of Minnesota

       G/D 
To the hills of Tennessee

 Em
Across the plains of Texas

     C             A
From sea to shining sea

     D               
From Detroit down to Houston

        F#m
    And New York to LA

             Em             
Well there's pride in every American heart

        Bm                       G
And its time we stand and say
[Chorus]
         A
That 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

            Em                D/F#
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land

    G         A   Bm  G
God bless the USA
(x2) [Outro]
        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

            Em                D/F#
Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land

    Em     D/F#  G A D
God bless the    U S A
