Ill Stand For You

E D A E E D Nine years old, At a high school football game, A E Standing next to Grandad, as the anthem began to play, D A E And he took off his hat, and told me to do the same, D A E B N.C. As a tear rolled down his cheek, I heard him say: E D I'll stand for you, And this great land, A A And for all the ones we lost, in a place called Vietnam, E D And I'll stand alone, Hell if I have to, A N.C. E D A For all the ones who can't, I'll stand for you. E D Years later, And after the towers fell, A E My best friend went off to fight, In a living hell, D A E He came back a Hero, saving twelve men over there, D A E B He would proudly stand up for you, But now he's in that chair. E D So I'll stand for him, Because I can, A A For all of those who fought, Out in that desert sand, E D And I'll stand alone, Hell if I have to, A E For all the ones who can't, I'll stand for you. E D A E E D A E G#m A By the dawns early light, Old Glory she still waives, Fm G#m A B N.C. For the stars and the stripes, And the home of the brave. E D I'll stand for you, For the red white and blue, A A That flag still stands for freedom, Well this much I know is true, E D And I'll stand alone, Oh hell if I have to, A E For all the ones who can't, I'll stand for you. E D Well I'll stand for you, I'll stand for you, A E Well I'll stand for you, and you, and you, and you, and you. E D Well I'll stand for you, I'll stand for you, A E I'll stand for you, and you, and you, and you, and you.
