[A]
[F#m] [A]
I'm just trying to be a father, raise a daughter and a son, [E] be a lover to their mother, everything to everyone.
[D] Up and down, bright and early, I'm all business in my suit.
[A] Yeah, I'm dressed up for [E] success, [F#] from my head down to [E] my boots.
[A] I don't do it for the money.
There's bills that I can't pay.
[E] I don't do it for the glory.
I just do it anyway.
[D] Providing for our futures, my responsibility.
[A] Yeah, I'm real good [E] on the pressure, [F#] being all that I [E] can be.
I [A] can't call in sick on Mondays when the weekend's been too strong.
[E] I just work straight through the holidays, sometimes all night long.
[D] You can bet that I stand ready when the wolf growls at the door.
[E] Yeah, I'm solid.
Yeah, I'm steady.
Yeah, I'm true down to the core.
And [A] I will always do my duty, no matter what the price.
[E] I've counted up the costs.
I know the sacrifice.
[D] Oh, and I don't want to die for you.
But if dying's asking [E] me, I'll bear that cross with honor.
Because freedom don't come free.
[A] I'm an American soldier, an American.
Beside [F#m] my brothers and my sisters, I will proudly take the stand.
[D] When liberty's in jeopardy, I will always do what's right.
[A] I'm out here on the front lines, [B] sleeping peace tonight.
[D] American soldier.
[E]
[A] I'm an American soldier.
