[G] I always knew that you would [Em] take us out [G] far from home
[A] [Am] As soon as, [G] as far as you [D] could go
[G] By the quarter inch cut of your hair

For [G] I knew, I [A] could see

Baby brother, you should expect [G] me to
[D]
[Am] Stock and barrel, [E] safety trigger, here's your [D] gun
[G] So nice is your heart, big and fat
With a patriotic sound when [D] you [Am] see the stripes [G] on
