Angry American (capo) Chords

(ver. 1)
Toby Keith
I have seen Toby play this song on GAC and he plays with a capo on 2.  This is more 
accurate than the other versions and is easier to play.

Capo 2

C   x 3 2 0 1 0
G   3 2 0 0 0 3
Am  x 0 2 2 1 0
Em  0 2 2 0 0 0
F   1 3 3 2 1 1
A   0 0 2 2 2 0

Verse 1:

C                  G
American girls and American guys
             Am                                Em
We’ll always stand up and salute, we’ll always recognize
        F                             C   
When we see old glory flyin’, there’s alot of men dead
   G 
So we can sleep in peace at night when we lay down our heads

Verse 2:

C                           G 
My daddy served in the army where he lost his right eye
              Am                                Em
But he flew a flag out in our yard till the day that he died
F                                   C
He wanted my mother, my brother, my sister and me
    G 
To grow up and live happy in the land of the free

Verse 3:

C                               G
Now this nation that I love has fallen under attack
                 Am                        Em
A mighty sucker punch came flyin’ in from somewhere in the back
F                             C
Soon as we could see clearly thru our big black eye
    G                      
Man we lit up your world like the 4th of July


Chorus:
          F                        G 
Hey Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list
        C                         Am
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist
        F                       G
And the eagle will fly, Man, it’s gonna be hell
     C                               Am                             
When you hear Mother Freedom start a-ringin her bell
          F                        G                        A
And it’ll feel like the whole wide world is rainin’ down on you
F                      G                       C
Brought to you courtesy of the red, white, and blue

Verse 4:

C                       G
Justice will be served and the battle will rage
                   Am             Em
This big dog will fight when you rattle his cage
F                                            C                             
And you’ll be sorry that you messed with the U.S. of A-A-A-A
G
Cause we’ll put a boot in your ass, it’s the American way


Repeat Chorus
