         F      Eb
American pride,
F             Bb         
Something you feel inside.
              Gm
Something you can't describe,
C        F      Eb  F  Eb
American pride.


F                  Bb
Dad said "Son, I'm proud you won, 
        C7                    F
But the game is more than any toy."
                         Bb
Momma said "Now son, say sir and say ma'am,
       C7                      F
And be proud you're a southern boy.

You play when you're hurtin',
        Bb
And you work when you're tired,
C7                        F
'Cause that was Grandpa's way.
                     F7        Bb
And the biscuits are better at Granny's house,
        C7                     F       C
And the gravy tastes great all day."


         F      Eb
American pride,
F             Bb
Something you feel inside.
              Gm
Something you can't describe,
              C
Something you cannot hide.
         F      Eb
American pride,
F             Bb
Something you feel inside.
               Gm
Traditions run deep and wide,
C             F       Eb  Bb  F  Eb
With American pride.


       F                Bb
When a baby is born, we all celebrate,
     C7              F
With tears of joy in family eyes.
                        Bb
'Cause we all know, the baby will grow,
C7               F
Up with American pride.

Yeah, we work and we play,
       Bb
And we have our own ways,
    C7                 F
And we don't all look alike.
                          F/A
But if the cause is right,
   Bb
We stand up and fight,
      C                 F       C
To protect our American pride.


         F       Eb
American pride,
F             Bb
Something you feel inside.
              Gm
Something you can't describe,
              C            
Something you cannot hide.
         F       Eb
American pride,
F             Bb
Something you feel inside.
               Gm
Traditions run deep and wide,
C             F      Eb  
With American pride.
      Bb      F      Eb
With American pride.
              F
Yes, American pride.
