Born In The Usa (acoustic)

Written by Bruce Springsteen

	  		


Intro: Em Em/G A Asus2 (2x) 

Em 
Born down in a dead man's town 

A 
The first kick I took was when I hit the ground 

Em 
You end up like a dog that's been beat too much 

          A 
'Till you spend half your life just covering up 


Chorus 

Em 
Born in the U.S.A. 

A               Asus2 
Born in the U.S.A. 

Em 
Born in the U.S.A. 

A               Asus2 
Born in the U.S.A. 


Em 
I got in a little hometown jam 

A 
And so they put a rifle in my hand 

Em 
Son ya ever heard of Vietnam 

A 
Well go and kill the yellow man 


Chorus 

Em 
Born in the U.S.A. 

A               Asus2 
Born in the U.S.A. 

Em 
Born in the U.S.A. 

A               Asus2 
Born in the U.S.A. 


Em 
Come back home to the refineries 

A 
Hiring man says  

Em 
I go down to see the VA man 

          A 
He says, "Son, don't you understand." 


Chorus 

Em 
Born in the U.S.A. 

A               Asus2 
Born in the U.S.A. 

Em 
Born in the U.S.A. 

A               Asus2 
Born in the U.S.A. 


Em 
I had a buddy at Khe Sahn 

A 
Fightin' off them Vietcong 

Em                                    A 
They're still there, he's all gone 


Em 
He had a little girl in Saigon 

A 
I got a picture of him in her arms 


Em    A    Em   A 
      Hoo, Hoo, Hoo 


Em 
Down in the shadow of the penitentiary 

A 
Out by the gas fires of the refinery 

Em 
I'm ten years down the road 

A 
Nowhere to gun and nowhere to go 


Em 
Hoo 

       A 
I'm a long gone daddy in the USA 

Em 
Born in the USA 

      A 
I'm a cool rockin' daddy in the USA 

Em                   A 
Born in the USA      Hoo 

Em A Em A (Repeat and Fade, with a lot of Hooing)
