Tom: F#m
F#m A F#m A F#m A E
[Verse]
F#m A
Wheres your honor, wheres my pride?
F#m A
Even when it's hard to find
F#m A E
From seed to harvest, it's been engrained
F#m A
Drive me past the fields of corn
F#m A
As Johnny Cash blasts in your Ford
F#m A E
Just get me home to catch the big game
[Chorus]
D F#m
Cause I was born an American
D E
On the same dark soil
Bm F#m D
Through the years and all the changes
F#m E D
Still theres no place like home
E F#m
I will die an American
F#m A F#m A F#m A E
[Verse]
F#m A
It's fireflies & times of war
F#m A
I think back to a time before
F#m A E
Of catching fireflies in my hands
F#m A
Then it seems I grew up in a flash
F#m A
A copper penny flying off a track
F#m A E
Free to fall in love with any man
[Chorus]
D F#m
Cause I was born an American
D E
On the same dark soil
Bm F#m D
Through the years and all the changes
F#m E D
Still theres no place like home
D F#m
I was born an American
D E
and though I've grow(i)n old
Bm F#m D
Through the years and all the changes
F#m E D
Still theres no place like home
E F#m
and I will die an American
