Verse 1
D A D In this troubled world today, we're asked to lend a hand A D Which I will, but first with me, comes my own native land G D Gladly will I help this world, and give all that I can A D It isn't selfishness but first, comes my own native land
Verse 2
D A D Is it right that we should give, and give until it hurts A D To a foreign land that treats us, just like so much dirt G D Those who lead us have forgotten, love is in the soul A D Love cannot be purchased with, the promise of more gold
Verse 3
D A D Giving brings a lot of joy, and this I do believe A D But aren't the ones who give so much, entitled to receive G D Why do we keep on giving, is it right that we should please A D The very ones who'd like to see, our country on her knees
Verse 4
D A D If we must give then we should use, a different policy A D And give to only those who treat us, fair and honestly G D We give to those who quickly take it, posing as a friend A D Then just as quickly turn and bite, the hand that's feeding them
Verse 5
D A D I'll be accused but I don't feel, i'm acting selfishly A D 'Cause I believe the country that, remains strong will stay free G D To give is great but are we giving, more than we can stand A D I question this, cause first with me, comes my own native land A D I question this, cause first with me, comes my own native land
