Drop D tuning
D C(add9)
People think we're nearing the end of time,
G/D D
But we've had enough and we've drawn the line.
D C(add9)
Our flag is up, since our people went down
G/D D
But now we're united from the country to the town.
D C(add9)
We live back in the woods you see,
G/D D Fill*1
Big city problems never bothered me.
D C(add9)
But the world has changed, and so have I,
G/D D
And America can survive.
C(add9) G/D D Fill*2
America will survive.
D C(add9)
We can plow our fields all day long,
G/D D
We can catch our fish from dusk 'til dawn.
D C(add9)
Yea we have toughed it out a time or two,
G/D D
These are dark days but we're gonna pull through.
D C(add9)
We grow good ole tomatoes, we got hometown pride,
G/D D
And America can survive.
C(add9) G/D D Fill*1
America is gonna survive.
G
Oh, you can't scare us out, you can't make us run,
Women, boys and girls with freedom and fun.
F C
We say grace, we say ma'am, if you don't like that,
G Fill*2
We don't give a damn.
D C(add9)
We came from the West Virginia coal mines,
G/D D Fill*1
And the Rocky Mountains and the big city skylines.
D C(add9)
hey we can hit back and we're gonna be fine,
G/D D
'Cause this ole country can survive.
C(add9) G/D D Fill*2
America can survive.
D C(add9)
I had a good friend in New York city,
G/D D Fill*3
He never called me by my name, called me hillbilly.
D C(add9)
My grandpa taught me how to live of the land,
G/D D Fill*1
His taught him to be a street smart man.
D C(add9)
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway lights,
G/D D
And I'd send him some that homemade scufflin' wine
D C(add9)
He was lost like so many in the terrible strife,
G/D D
And we're all asking God now, why oh why?
D C(add9)
I read a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye,
G/D D
That's an old slogan we're gonna revive,
C(add9) G/D D
'Cause America can survive,
C(add9) G/D D
America will survive.
G F
Cause, you can't scare us out, you can't make 'em run,
C G
What we got here is freedom and fun.
F C
We say grace, we say ma'am, if they don't like that,
G Fill*2
We give less than a damn.
D C(add9)
We're from North California and South Alabam',
G/D D
And all they've done is unite the whole land.
D C(add9)
There's no more Yankees and Rebels this time,
G/D D
But one united people that stand behind,
C(add9) G/D D
America can survive.
C(add9) G/D D
America will survive.
C(add9) D
America can survive.
C(add9) G/D D C(add9) G/D D
America will survive.
