G

It almost fell at the Alamo
D
G
but she waved on.
C
Chancellorsville,
got cut again at Shiloh Hill.
and the south wind blew hard
G
C
on that ragged old flag.
She took a bad hit from a Bertha gun.
She hung limp and low,
She was in Korea, Vietnam.
She went where she was sent
brown, yellow, white,
Stars and Stripes.
And in her own good man here
she's been abused,
and burned, dishonored, denied, refused,
And the very government
for which you stand
C
G
has been scandalized
D
G
throughout the land.
but she's in good shape for
the shape she's in.
Well, she's been through the fire before,
D
G
We don't let her touch the ground,
and we hold her upright.
Bm
Em
I guess I do like to brag,
G
D
of that ragged old flag.
G
