D    G

[Verse]
       D
I fly high above this
             G
 courthouse lawn
Red, white and blue
         D
I stand for you
     D
And from up here
               G
I've seen it all

Good and bad times too
         D
I stand for you

[Chorus]
           A
I've seen prayers,
kisses, desperate wishes
G
Beauty queens and
 old sons of bitches
 D
Counting their blessings
 for living where they do
             A
I seen this town in trouble,
fights and struggles
     G
You all pull together
and help one another
 D
There ain't nothing
                     A
that you can't get through
             G
It's what we do
              A
You stand for me
             D    G
I stand for you

[Verse]
          D
Put your faith in family,
               G
 friends and God

Freedom and truth
         D
I stand for you
      D                 G
I'll fly forever never stop
I love the view
         D
I stand for you

[Chorus]
           A
I've seen prayers, kisses,
 desperate wishes
G
Beauty queens and
 old sons of bitches
 D
Counting their blessings
 for living where they do
             A
I seen this town in trouble,
 fights and struggles
     G
You all pull together
and help one another
 D
There ain't nothing that
                A
 you can't get through
             G
It's what we do
              A
You stand for me
             G        A
I stand for you-ou-ou-ou

May no man ever take me down

May my Stars and Stripes

never touch the ground
