Intro

Verse 1
B Born down in a dead man's town
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground
EEnd up like a dog that's been beat too much
Till you spend half your life just covering up, now
Chorus
B Born in the USA, I was born in the USA, I was
E Born in the USA, born in the USA now
Verse 2
B Got in a little hometown jam
So they put a rifle in my hand
E Sent me off to a foreign land
E Ten years burning down the road
To go and kill the yellow man
Chorus
B Born in the USA, I was born in the USA, I was
E Born in the USA, I was born in the USA
Verse 3
B Come back home to the refinery
To go and kill the yellow man
Hiring man said "son if it was up to me"
E Went down to see my VA man
He said "son, don't you understand now"
