Well, the eagle's been flying slow, [C] and the flag's [Gm] been flying low, [F] and a lot of people
[Am] saying that [Gm] America's fixing to fall.
But speaking [Bb] just for me, [C] and some people from [Gm] Tennessee, [F] we got a [Am] thing or two to [Gm] tell you all.
[C] This lady may have stumbled, [Gm] but she ain't never fell, [C] and if the Russians don't believe
that, they [D] can all go [C] straight to hell.
We're [Gm] gonna put her feet [Bb] back on the [C] path of righteousness, [Gm] and then [F] God [Am] bless America [Gm] again.
[F] And you never did [C] think that it ever would [D] happen again.

[Gm] them is our home.
And we may have [Bb] done a little [C] bit of fighting [Gm] amongst ourselves, [F] but you outside [Am] people
best leave [Gm] us alone.
[C] Cause we'll all stick together, [Gm] and you can take that to the bank.
[C] That's the cowboys and the hippies [D] and the rebels [C] and the yanks.
You [Gm] just go and lay [Bb] your hand [C] on a Pittsburgh [Gm] Steelers fan, [F] and I think you're [Am] gonna finally [Gm] understand.
