[Intro]
G Bm A
[Verse 1]
Bm We were here blowin' out birthday cakes A Ridin' our bikes, jumpin' in lakes Em Feelin' butterflies on our first dates D A And stealin' our old man's beer Bm We were here back home in the home of the brave A But the brave ain't home, they're an ocean away Em Doin' their job and keepin' us safe D While we were here
[Chorus]
G They were there, fightin' back on the front lines Bm Strappin' up their boots before the sunrise A Keepin' their mamas up all night in fear G They were there in the name of a hometown Bm Of a last name that was passed down A Every day, every night, every moment we were here G Bm They were there A They were there
[Verse 2]
Bm We were here sayin' the Pledge of Allegiance A Repeatin' those words, not knowin' their meanin' Em Takin' for granted all our freedoms D A In the land of the free Bm We were here bitchin' 'bout minimum wage A Splittin' ourselves into red and blue states Em And still sat down, hot food on the plate D Yeah, while we were here
[Chorus]
G They were there, fightin' back on the front lines Bm Strappin' up their boots before the sunrise A Keepin' their mamas up all night in fear G They were there in the name of a hometown Bm Of a last name that was passed down A Every day, every night, every moment we were here G Bm They were there A They were there
[Bridge]
G They were there Bm A Givin' everything they got G They were there Bm A Some came home in a pinewood box G With those stars and stripes on top
[Chorus]
G They were there, fightin' back on the front lines Bm Strappin' up their boots before the sunrise A Keepin' their mamas up all night in fear G They were there in the name of a hometown Bm Of a last name that was passed down A Every day, every night, every moment we were here G Bm They were there A They were there [Outro] G Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Bm Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh A G Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
