Bruce Springsteen - Born In The Usa Chords

[Verse]
E
Born down in a dead man's town
E
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
A
End up like a dog that's been beat too much
E
Till you spend half your life just covering up

[Chorus]
E
Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A.
      A                                     E
I was born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A. now

[Verse]
E
Got in a little hometown jam
E
So they put a rifle in my hand
A
Sent me off to a foreign land
E
To go and kill the yellow man

[Chorus]
E
Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A.
      A                                     E
I was born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A. now

[Verse]
E
Come back home to the refinery
Hiring man said "Son if it was up to me"
A
Went down to see my V.A. man
A
He said "Son, don't you understand"
E
I had a brother at Khe Sahn
E
Fighting off the Viet Cong
A
They're still there, he's all gone
E
He had a woman he loved in Saigon
A
I got a picture of him in her arms now
E
Down in the shadow of the penitentiary
E
Out by the gas fires of the refinery
    A
I'm ten years burning down the road
A
Nowhere to run ain't got nowhere to go

[Chorus]
E
Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A.
A                                                      E
Born in the U.S.A., I'm a long gone Daddy in the U.S.A. now
N.C.
Born in the U.S.A., Born in the U.S.A.
A
Born in the U.S.A., I'm a cool rocking Daddy in the U.S.A. now
