         G
I'm just tryin' to be a father,

     C
Up and at 'em bright and early, I'm

And I can't call in sick on Mondays 
when the weekend's been too strong
       D
I just work straight through the 
holidays, and sometimes all night 
long
        C
You can bet that I stand ready, when
 the wolf growls at the door
        D
Hey I?m solid, hey I?m steady, hey 
I?m true down to the core

           G
And I will always do my duty no 
matter what the price
     D
I?ve counted up the cost, I know the
 sacrifice
       C
Oh and I don?t want to die for you, 
but if dyin?s asked of me
     D
I?ll bear that cross with honor, 
cause freedom don?t come free.

       G
I?m an American Soldier an American
          Em
Beside my brothers and my sisters, I
 will proudly take a stand
     C
When liberty?s in jeopardy, I will 
always do what?s right

I?m out here on the front lines, 
 A
sleep in peace tonight
