But

And I've said it before but I'll say it again

to save this land

And a country boy
F#
B
C#m
is all I'll ever be

Outro 1
[Battle Hymn of the Rebublic]
C#
(I love my country, I love my guns,
I love my family
I love the way it is now,
and anybody that tries to change it
Has to come through me,
that should be all our attitudes
'Cause this is America and a country boy
is good enough for me, son)
