Tom: E
E A E B7
I hear people talkin' bad about the way they have to live here in this country
B7 E
Harpin' on the wars we fight, gripin' 'bout the way things ought to be
E A E B7
I don't mind them switchin' sides and standin' up for things they believe in
B7 E B E
When they're runnin' down our country, man, they're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
[Chorus]
E B7
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
B7 E
Runnin' down a way of life our fightin men have fought and died to keep
E E7 A
If you don't love it, leave it; Let this song that I'm singin' be a warning
B7 E
When you're runnin' down our country, Hoss, you're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
[Verse]
E A E B7
I read about some squirrely guy who claims that he just don't believe in fightin'
B7 E
And I wonder just how long the rest of us can count on bein' free
E A E B7
They love our milk and honey but they preach about some other way of livin'
B7 E B E
When they're runnin' down our country, man, they're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
[Chorus]
E B7
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
B7 E
Runnin' down a way of life our fightin men have fought and died to keep
E E7 A
If you don't love it, leave it; Let this song that I'm singin' be a warning
B7 E
When you're runnin' down our country, Hoss, you're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
F C7
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
C7 F
Runnin' down a way of life our fightin men have fought and died to keep
F F7 Bb
If you don't love it, leave it; Let this song that I'm singin' be a warning
C7 F
When you're runnin' down our country, Hoss, you're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
C7 F
When you're runnin' down our country, Hoss, you're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
