         G/B            F 
He set a course for Carolina 
                   C 
Not a penny to his name 
        G/B        F 
Just an old family bible 
                        C 
And a hunger in his veins 
       G/B           F 
Like a million other dreamers 
                   Am7 
In search of liberty 
               G 
Sailing to the land of freedom

And possibility 
 

 
       Dm7                 C/E 
Just a simple man with his calloused hands 
        F 
That he worked down to the bone

Started a family and made his legacy 
        F 
When he called this place our home

Every single seed he planted 
          G 
Turning into a field of dreams

Paving the way for generations 
        F 
Now our roots are running deep 
              C 
And when that proud flag waves 
    E/G# 
The anthem plays 
  Am       G        F 
I know the price he paid 
        Dm7             C/E            F

 Hanging steel and blasting stone 
         G                   Am 
Drilling wells, cutting timber 
        F                  C 
Herding cows and mining coal 
                G 
They gave their blood and tears 
              Am7          F 
And served in every single war 
         Dm 
As every shot rang out 
           C/E 
They never had a doubt 
          F                       G 
About the land they were fighting for

              C

The anthem plays 
  Am       G        F 
I know the price he paid
