Song: America Can Survive Tab
D Cadd9
People think we're nearing the end of time,
G/D D
But we've had enough and we've drawn the line.
D Cadd9)
Our flag is up, since our people went down
G/D D
But now we're united from the country to the town.
D Cadd9
We live back in the woods you see,
G/D D Fill*1
Big city problems never bothered me.
D Cadd9
But the world has changed, and so have I,
G/D D
And America can survive.
C(add9) G/D D Fill*2
America will survive.
D Cadd9
We can plow our fields all day long,
G/D D
We can catch our fish from dusk 'til dawn.
D Cadd9
Yea we have toughed it out a time or two,
G/D D
These are dark days but we're gonna pull through.
D Cadd9
We grow good ole tomatoes, we got hometown pride,
G/D D
And America can survive.
Cadd9 G/D D Fill*1
America is gonna survive.
D Cadd9
Oh, you can't scare us out, you can't make us run,
G D
Were the boys and girls with freedom and fun.
D Cadd9 G
We say grace, we say ma'am, if you don't like that,
D Fill*2
We don't give a damn.
D Cadd9
We came from the West Virginia coal mines,
G/D D Fill*1
And the Rocky Mountains and the big city skylines.
D Cadd9
hey we can hit back and we're gonna be fine,
G/D Cadd9 D
Cause this ole country can survive.
G Cadd9D
America can survive.
D Cadd9
I had a good friend in New York city,
G D Fill*3
He never called me by my name, called me hillbilly.
D Cadd9
My grandpa taught me how to live of the land,
G/D D Fill*1
His taught him to be a street smart man.
D Cadd9
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway lights,
G/D D
And I'd send him some that homemade scufflin' wine
D Cadd9
He was lost like so many in the terrible strife,
G/D D
And we're all asking God now, why oh why?
D Cadd9
I read a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye,
G/D D
That's an old slogan we're gonna revive,
G Cadd9 D
Cause America can survive.
G C(a9)DAmerica can survive.
D Cadd9
Oh, you can't scare us out, you can't make us run,
G D
Were the boys and girls with freedom and fun.
D Cadd9 G
We say grace, we say ma'am, if you don't like that,
D Fill*2
We don't give a damn.
D Cadd9
We're from North California and South Alabam',
G/D D
And all they've done is unite the whole land.
D Cadd9
With no more Yankees and Rebels this time,
G/D D
But one united people that stand behind,
G Cadd9D
America can survive.
G Cadd9D
America will survive.
G Cadd9D
America can survive.
G Cadd9D
America will survive.
