Toby Keith - American Soldier [Chord]

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 
     C 
When liberty?s in jeopardy, I will always do what?s right 
    G                            A 
I?m out here on the front lines, sleep in peace tonight 
C                D        G                  Em C D
