Intro: G

G
Oh please don’t say that you’ll Go
C            Em
My heart can’t bear the news
      C
Just knowing that you’ll be
            D             C      G
А thousand light years away if you Do
G
And will you know when it’s through
C                    Em
When you, find what you’re looking for
             C
Will you, know what to Do
      D            C           G      C
А thousand light years away when you Do
G
Oh when you Do
        G                 Em
And I should have said it before you were gone
     C                             D
Cause I’m kicking myself for waiting oh so long
 G                            C
And I should have held you near
G                   C
But every time I feared
Em                          D
That somehow you just wouldn’t feel the same

       G                   C 
So please don’t say that you’ll Go
Em 
My heart can’t bear the news
      C
Just knowing that you’ll be
         D             C          G
А thousand light years away if you Do
C        G
Oh if you Do
              C                      G    
Well I’m just sitting here gazing up at the stars
C
Let’s say we pick one out
D
And call the whole thing ours

G                             C
And even though that light we see
 G                       C
Ain’t the same for you and me
G                            C
Well you’ll know and I’ll know
G                         C
That you and I can even be
D             C               G            C
А thousand light years away and I’d still love you
    G      C
Oh yes I Do
    G
I love you

C                                       F  
If tomorrow all the things were gone I'd worked for all my life, 
     Dm7                              A#              G7  
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife, 
    C                          Em7  
I'd thank my lucky stars to be living here today 
           Dm7                                        Am    
'Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can't take 
        F  
that away 
 
Chorus:
        G                                F                C  
And I'm proud to be an American where at least I know I'm free 
      G                                  F                C  
And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me 
                Am        Em7              F                Em7  
And I'll gladly stand up, next to you, and defend her still today 
             Dm7              C                   F     G     C  
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land, God bless the USA. 
 
 C                                       F  
From the lakes of Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee, 
     Dm7                              A#              G7  
Across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea, 
    C                          Em7  
From Detroit down to Houston, from New York to LA, 
         Dm7                               
Well there's pride in every American heart, 
         Am            F  
 And it's time we stand and say, 
 
         G                                 F                C  
That I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free, 
         G                               F                  C  
And I won`t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me 
                Am        Em7             F               Em7  
And I'll gladly stand up, next to you and defend her still today, 
       Dm7                    C                   F           Am/F  
'Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land, God bless the USA
