[Intro]

A

[Verse 1]
---------------------
         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
       Dadd9
Up and at   them bright and early
I'm all business in my suit
          Esus4              E
Yeah, I'm dressed for success
        Esus4                E
From my head down to my boots

[Verse 2]
---------------------
        A
I don't do it for money there's still bills that I can't pay
        E
I don't do it for the glory, I just do it anyway
   Dadd9
Providing for our future's my responsibility
         Esus4               E           Esus4             E
Yeah I'm real good under pressure, being all  that I can be

[Verse 3]
---------------------
            A
And I can't call in sick on Mondays
When the weekends been to strong
       E
I just work straight through the holidays
And sometimes all night long
        Dadd9
You can bet  that I stand ready when the wolf growls at the door
         Esus4          E               Esus4                E
Hey, I'm solid, hey I'm steady, hey I'm true down to the core

[Verse 4]
---------------------
             A
And I will always do my duty, no matter what the price
     E
I've counted up the cost, I know the sacrifice
        Dadd9
Oh, and I    don't want to die for you
But if dying's asked of me
     Esus4                  E
I'll bear that cross with honor
      Esus4                  E
Cause freedom don't come free

[Chorus]
---------------------
        A
I'm an American soldier, an American
          F#m7
Beside my brothers and my sisters I will proudly take a stand
     Dadd9
When liberty's in jeopardy I will always do what's right
    A                               B
I'm out here on the front lines, so sleep in peace tonight
 Dadd9           E        A
American soldier, I'm an American solder
F#m7 Dadd9 E        A
           I'm an American soldier, an American
          F#m7
Beside my brothers and my sisters I will proudly take a stand
     Dadd9
When liberty's in jeopardy I will always do what's right
    A                               B
I'm out here on the front lines, so sleep in peace tonight
