CAPO: 2nd FRET
INTRO:
[G] [G] [G] [G]
Verse
[G]
He don't wear a cape flyin' off his back
[G]
But he’s the bravest man I know
[Am7]
They don’t cheer his name walking down the street
[D]
But he’s a real life true hero
[G]
Now his little girl, yeah, she’s all grown up
[G]
Got his picture on her wall
[Am7]
It’s the only thing left of the man
[G] [D]
Who sacrificed it all
Chorus
[Cmaj7]
An American soldier
[Cmaj7]
In his camo hat and boots
[G]
And he never got to hold her
[G]
While he was fighting for me and you
[Am7]
So when you look at that flag, hanging up high
[D]
You better salute
[G] [G]
The American Soldier
Verse
[G]
She pulls back her hair throws on that badge
[G]
Stares down a loaded gun
[Am7]
Don’t know when she’ll be back home again
[D]
To see her daughter and her son
[G]
And they call her mom but I gotta say
[G]
I have another name in mind
[Am7]
She’s a fighter and she took a stand
[D]
A hero in my eyes
Chorus
[Cmaj7]
An American soldier
[Cmaj7]
In her camo hat and boots
[G]
Wishing it was over
[G]
But she’s still fighting for me and you
[Am7]
So when you look at that flag, hanging up high
[D]
You better salute
[G]
The American soldier
[G]
Oh oh oh
[C] [Cmaj7] [G] [D]
American soldier
Bridge
[Em7]
I guess freedom it ain’t all that free
[G]
In this land of liberty
[Am7]
The red, white, and blue
Owe it all to
[D]
God and the
Chorus
[C] [Cmaj7]
American soldier
In their camo hat and boots
[G]
And I wish it would be over
[G]
But they’re fighting for me and you

You always salute
