Soldier Blue

Bb
I look out and I see a land,
                           B
young and lovely, hard and strong.
E         B              E                B
For fifty thousand years we’ve danced her praises,
F
prayed our thanks and we’ve just begun

Bb   F            Gm F
This this is my country,
Eb        Bb          Cm       F
young and growing and free and flowing.
       Bb   F            Gm F
Sea to sea, yes, this is my country,
Eb       Bb      Cm          F              Bb
ripe and bearing miracles in every pond and tree.
    F                Gm   F
Her spirit walks the high country,
       Eb        Bb
giving free wild samples,
    Cm           F            Bb
and setting an example how to give.
F            Gm F
Yes, this is my country,
Eb           Bb       Cm          F               Db
retching and turning, like a baby learning how to live.

                   Ab
I can stand upon a hill at dawn
E           B       E            B
look all around me, feel her surround me
        D                                 A
Soldier blue, can’t you see, her life has just begun
     F          C       Eb               F
It´s beating inside us, telling us she’s here to guide us
Bb      D             Gm Bb
Soldier blue, soldier blue,
          Eb       Cm        Bb           F
can’t you see that there’s another way to love her.

Bb   F       Gm F
Yes, this is my country,
Eb       Bb                Cm              F
I sprang from her, and I’m learning how to count upon her
Bb   F                     Gm F
tall trees and the corn is my country,
  Eb      Bb                Cm              F
I guess I love her, and I’m learning how to take care of her.
{CHORUS]
Db                    Ab
When the news stories get’ me down.
E        B        E          B
I take a drink of freedom to think of
D               A
My America from toe to crown,
F          C           Eb              F
it's never long before I know just why I belong here.

Bb      Dm            Gm Bb Gm
Soldier blue, soldier blue,
          Eb                 Cm           F
can't you see that there's another way to love her.   (3x)
