“The American Dream” written by Gary Stanton Standard tuning EADGBE Capo 3 [Intro] C [verse]
CI get pissed off when I watch the Gnews Fand a life that ain’t yours is yours to choose Aand workin’ hard isn’t Grelavent anyFmore CI break a sweat and then use my Gcash Fto feed a man who all he does is sit on his ass Aand we teach our kids that’s Ghow it’s supposed to Fbe Gwell let me tell you Asomthin‘ you won’t here anFymore AI heard it from my Gdaddy and it should be Fknown
[chorus]
CYou won’t take my fGreedom, Fyou won’t take my gun AYou tried to take my GJesus what thisF countries founded on CYou might think im Gcrazy yeahF that’s alright with me Aits a nightmare what these Gfolks now call Fthe American Dream.
[verse]
CWhen they hear somethin’ they don’Gt wanna hear Fthey‘ll file a suit and close their ears and Ahit you with that hate Gcrime you’llF do time these days CIf free speech is an open Gdoor Ftill you bring up god and it ain’t no more AWell good luck, Gshuttin’ my mouth’s gonna be Fhard to do
[bridge]
GWell I’ve said it a hundred Atimes Fand I’ll say it once again AThe man‘s gonna get you Gdown so you gotta get Fback up to win
[chorus] You won’t take my freedom, you won’t take my gun You tried to take my Jesus what this countries founded on You might think im crazy yeah that’s alright with me its a nightmare what these folks now call the American Dream. [bridge] Well I ain’t sayin it’s hopeless but look at all our debt And a leader who points a finger will never get my respect [chorus] You won’t take my freedom, you won’t take my gun You tried to take my Jesus what this countries founded on You might think im crazy yeah that’s alright with me its a nightmare what these folks now call the American Dream.
