Believe In Your Country Chords by Stompin’ Tom Connors

[Verse 1]
A                    
Goodbye Jim & Jackie, 
D
Goodbye John & May
   E                       
We hate to see you leaving, 
              A
Bound for the USA

But if you don't believe 
            A
your country should
D
come before yourself
                         E       
Ya can better serve your country, 
                    A
By living somewhere else

 
[Verse 2]
A                             
I know the times are changing, 
D
Factories closing down
     E                     
But if you stay and help us, 
                         A
We can turn these things around
A
But if you don't believe 

Your country should
D
come before yourself
                         E
Ya can better serve your country,
                    A
by living somewhere else

 
[Verse 3]
A
And while our politicians,
D
divide our presious land
   E
We speak in French & English,
                     A
but they still don't understand
A
If you don't believe 

Your country should
D
come before yourself
       E
Ya can better serve your country,
                    A
by living somewhere else
 

[Verse 4]
A
In a land that's short on heros,
     D
they trade our jobs away
    E
And we don't need no zeros to
                          A
come and help us save the day
A
So if you don't believe 

Your country should
D
come before yourself
       E
Ya can better serve your country,
                    A
by living somewhere else
 

[Verse 5]
A
And if you should find your heaven,
      D
where stars & stripes are flown
       E
You'll learn to stand more proudly,
                         A
than you ever stood back home
A
And they'll tell you that your country,
     D
must come before yourself
          E
Or you'll have to serve your country
                    A
by living somewhere else
 

[Verse 6]
A                      
So goodbye Jim & Jackie, 
D
Goodbye John & May
   E                          
We hope that you'll be happy, 
              A
Living in the USA
A
Cause if you don't 

believe your country should
D
come before yourself
       E
Ya can better serve your country,
                    A
by living somewhere else
A
If you don't 

Believe your country should
D
come before yourself
       E
Ya can better serve your country,
                    A
by living somewhere else
A
If you don't 

Believe your country should
D
come before yourself
       E
Ya can better serve your country,
                    A
by living somewhere else
