SONG: HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA ARTIST: TONY KEITH TAB BY: DON CZARSKI EMAIL: [email protected] NOTE: Where I have the CM9/B chord shown at that part Toby Keith is playing what I call a "walk down" from the C chord to the Am. If you want to you can play a G chord there in its place. I leave that choice up to you. What you are doing is going from the 3rd fret on the A string to the 2nd fret on the A string. Please keep that in mind when playing and rating this tab. Thanks.

You were the darlin' when you saved the world

F            C
 WW one and two

G                                   G F
 France would be part of Germany now

                   C
If it hadn't been for you

   Now your children want to turn you in

C            CM9/B        Am
To something  other than yourself

 F                            C
They burn your flag in their city streets

 More than anybody else

Will the world keep right on spinnin'

F                             C
Without the greatest of them all

 Witout the helping hand of God

BREAK:
Em                    F
 All the broken down cities

C                G
By the left's design

Em                            F
 And the right can't seem to get it right

C             G
 Most of the time

Am                   E7
 Every time I go to town and vote

F                           Fm
 I just come home with the blues

F               C
 The lesser of two evils

F                    G
 All we ever get to choose

Am                Em
 Happy birthday America
