Well, if you ask me where I come from 
D 
Here's what I tell everyone 
G 
I was born by God's dear grace 
      D 
In a extra - ordinary place 
           Em                G                 D 
Where the Stars and Stripes   and the Eagle flies. 
 
 
D 
It's a big ol' land with countless dreams 
D 
And happiness ain't out of reach. 
      G 
Hard work pays off the way it should. 
               D 
Ya, I've seen enough to know that we've got it good! 
           Em              (F#)-G                D 
Where the Stars and Stripes      and the Eagle flies.

There's a lady that stands in a harbor for what we believe. 
               C                           G 
And there's a bell that still echoes the price that it cost to

     D 
I pledge allegiance to this flag 
    D 
And if that bothers you, well that's too bad! 
        G 
But if you got pride and you're proud you do -  
               D 
Hey, we could use some more like me and you. 
           Em              (F#)-G                D 
Where the Stars and Stripes      and the Eagle flies.

No, it ain't the only place on earth 
    D 
But it's the only place that I prefer 
    G 
To love my wife and raise my kids 
          D 
Hey, the same way that my daddy did. 
           Em              (F#)-G                D 
Where the Stars and Stripes      and the Eagle flies.
