American Soldier Toby Keith
Verse:
[A]I'm just trying to be a father. Raise a daughter and a son.
[E]Be a lover to thier mother, and everything to everyone.
[D]Up and at em bright and early, I'm all buisness in my suit.
[E]Yeah I'm dressed up for success, from my head down to my boots.
[A]I don't do it for the money, there bills that I can't pay.
[E]I don't do it for the glory, I just do it anyway.
[D]Providing for our futures, my responsibility.
[E]Yeah I'm real good under pressure, being all that I can be.
[A]I can't call in sick on monday when the weekend's been to strong.
[E]I just work straight through the hollidays, sometimes all night long.
[D]And you can bet that I stand ready, when the wolf growls at the door.
[E]Hey I'm solid. Hey I'm steady. Hey I'm true down to the core.
Pre Chorus:
[A]And I will always do my duties no matter what the price.
[E]I've counted up the cost, I know the sacrifice.
[D]Oh and I don't want to die for you, but if dying's asked of me.
[E]I'll bear that cross with honor, 'cause freedom don't come free.
Chorus:
I'm an Ame[A]rican Soldier, I'm an American
Beside my b[F#m]rothers and my sisters I will proudly take a stand.
[D]When liberty's in jeopardy, I will always do what's right.
I'm [A]out here on the front line. Sl[B]eep in peace tonight.
[D]American Soldier, [E] I'm an Am[A]erican Soldier
[F#m] [D] [E]
Chorus
(F#m D E A) x2
