Intro: G D C

G

I'm just tryin' to be a father, raise a daughter and a son

D

Be a lover to their mother, everythin' to everyone

C

Up and at 'em bright and early, I'm all business in my suit

D

Yeah 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

D

I don't do it for the glory, I just do it anyways

C

Providing for our future's my responsibility

D

Yeah I'm real good under pressure, being all that I can be

G

And I can't call in sick on Mondays when the weekend's been too strong

D

I just work straight through the holidays, and sometimes all night long

C

You can bet that I stand ready, when the wolf growls at the door

D

Hey I’m solid, hey I’m steady, hey I’m true down to the core

G

And I will always do my duty no matter what the price

D

I’ve counted up the cost, I know the sacrifice

C

Oh and I don’t want to die for you, but if dyin’s asked of me

D

I’ll bear that cross with honor, cause freedom don’t come free.

G

I’m an American Soldier an American

Em

Beside my brothers and my sisters, I will proudly take a stand

When liberty’s in jeopardy, I will always do what’s right

I’m out here on the front lines, sleep in peace tonight

American Soldier, I’m and American, Soldier.
