American soldier Toby Keith
[G] [D]I'm just trying to be a father, raise a daughter and a son
Be a lover[G] to their mother, everything to every one [C]
Up and at 'em[Cm] bright and early, all business in my su[G]it
[D] I'm dressed up for success from my head down to my boots
[G]
I don't do it for the money, there's bills that I can't pay
I don't do i[D]t for the glory, I just do it anyway
Providin[C]g for our future's, my responsibility
I'm real g[D]ood under pressure, being all that[Dsus4] I can be [D]
I can't call i[G]n sick on monday when the weekend's been to strong
I just work s[D]traight through the holidays, sometimes all night long
You can bet th[C]at I stand ready when the wolf growls at the door
Hey I'm solid,[D] Hey I'm steady, hey I'm true down to the core
And I will alway[G]s do my duty, no matter what the price
I've coun[D]ted up the cost, I know the sacrifice
Oh and I don't [C]wanna die for you, but if dyin's asked of me
I'll b[D]ear that cross with honor, 'cause freedom don't come free
chorus:
I'm an Ameri[G]can Soldier, an American [Gsus4] [G]
Beside my brothers [Em]and my sisters, I will gladly make a stand
When libert[C]y's in jeopardy,I will always do what's right
I'm out he[G]re on the front lines, sleep in peace[Cm] tonight
[C]American Soldier, I'm an A[D]merican [G]

day...Questions, comments, or suggestions email me...
