             G                     
I've got a bright red sticker on 
 Am7
the back of my car
        C                G
Says United States Marines
 G                           Am7
And yesterday a lady in a mini-van
      C                         D
Held up her middle finger at me
          Em           D      
Does she think she knows what I 
     C9
stand for
         Em           D       C9
Or the things that I believe
          C                        
Just by looking at a sticker for 
     G       Em
the US Marines
         C             Dsus      G
On the bumper of my S - U - V

      G                   Am7
See, my brother Chris, he's been in
      C              G
For more than 14 years now
      G                       
Our dad was in the Navy during 
    Am7
Vietnam
          C                  D
Did his duty then he got out
         Em        D            
And my grandpa earned his purple 
C9
heart
          Em        D       C9
On the beach of Normandy
Continues after the ad
         C                       
That's why I've got a sticker for 
        G       Em
the US Marines
         C             Dsus      G
On the bumper of my S - U - V

           D        D/F#        G
But that doesn't mean that I want 
war
            D            D/F#    G
I'm not Republican or Democrat
          B7                     
But I've gone all around this crazy 
Em
world
         C                      D
Just to try and better understand

 Em      D/F#       C9
Yes I do have questions
          Em            D         
I get to ask them because I'm free
  A

         C                       
That's why I've got a sticker for 
        G       Em
the US Marines
         C             Dsus      G
On the bumper of my S - U - V

             D        D/F#   G
Cause I've been to Hiroshima
           D            D/F#      G
And I've been to the  D  - M - Z
       B7                     Em
I've walked on the sand in Baghdad
                  Am7              
Still don't have all of the answers
       D
 I need

               Em      D/F#       
But I guess I wanna know where 
  C9
she's been
             Em           D       
Before she judges and gestures to 
     A
me
        C                          
Cause she don't like my sticker for
        G       Em
 the US Marines
        Am7            Dsus      G
On the bumper of my S - U - V

    G                         Am7
So I hope that lady in her mini-van
               C                 
Turns on her radio and hears this 
         G
from me
         G                         
As she picks up her kids from their
    Am7
 private school
                  C                
And drives home safely on our city 
     D
streets
            C                      
Or to the building where her church
           D
 group meets
               C                   
Yeah, that's why I've got a sticker
            G       Em
 for the US Marines
