A D E
[Verse]
A
After school one day a boy
D
sat talking with his dad
E
He said the teacher pulled out a book
D
Taught us all about the flag
A
About the red, white, and blue
D
And how each color was defined
E
And why we stand hand over heart
D
Pledge allegiance every time
Bm
His dad pulled out a box
D
with a folded flag
Bm
And said trust me son
D E
it means way more than that
[Chorus]
A
It's more than a flag,
D
or stars and stripes
E
Yeah, it waves for the ones who died
A
And gave their lives,
D E
So you and I could live on
F#m
It stands for truth,
C#
It stands for grace
D
It's colors don't run and to this day
E
It carries sacrifice and scars
D
And every stripe and star it has
A Bm
You might know the definition
D
But the truth is
E A D E A D E
It's more than a flag
[Verse]
A
You said that your grandad
D
fought in Vietnam back in '65
E
Three hundred fifty second dropping bombs
D
To lessen the threats he had to fight
A
Got sent home in '71 with
D
one less leg and a Purple Heart
E
He used to say I gave some and
some gave all
D
And that's what we're fighting for
Bm
They gave your grandma this box
D
on the day he passed
Bm
Fired twenty one shots,
D E
and folded up that flag
[Chorus]
A
It's more than a flag,
D
or stars and stripes
E
Yeah, it waves for the ones who died
A
And gave their lives,
D E
So you and I could live on
F#m
It stands for truth,
C#
It stands for grace
D
It's colors don't run and to this day
E
It carries sacrifice and scars
D
And every stripe and star it has
A Bm
You might know the definition
D
But the truth is
E F#m D F#m D E
It's more than a flag
[Break]
E F#m
It's there when we fight
E
It's there when we fought
D
On foreign shores and right at home
A Bm7
Yeah you know it's true
D E
It's why we bleed red, white, and blue
[Chorus]
A
It's more than a flag,
D
or stars and stripes
E
It waves for the ones who died
A
And gave their lives,
D E
So you and I could live on
F#m
It stands for truth,

It's colors don't run and
to this day

Ther's nobody more American
E A
Ask not, what your country
can do for you
D
Ask what you can do for
E A
your country
