We Take Care Of Our Own

[Intro]
D G 6x


[Verse]
D                          
   I've been knockin' on the
  G                         D  G
door that holds the throne
D                      
   I've been lookin' for
     G                     D  G
the map that leads me home
A                       
   I've been stumblin' on
  G
good hearts turned to stone
A                  G  
The road of good intentions

has gone dry as bone


[Chorus]
D                 G
 We take care of our own
D                 G
 We take care of our own
D                     G
 Wherever this flag's flown
D                 G
 We take care of our own


[Verse]
D                G           
   From Chicago to New Orleans,
                             D  G
from the muscle to the bone
D                 
   From the shotgun
  G                     D  G
shack to the Superdome
A                     
   We yelled "help" but
   G
the cavalry stayed home
A                   
   There ain't no-one
  G
hearing the bugle blown


[Chorus]
D                 G
 We take care of our own
D                 G
 We take care of our own
D                     G
 Wherever this flag's flown
D                 G
 We take care of our own

[Verse]
D                G  
Where the eyes, the

eyes with the will to see
D                       
   Where the hearts, that
  G
run over with mercy
D                      
   Where's the love that
     G
has not forsaken me
D                      
   Where's the work that
  G
set my hands, my soul free
D                           
   Where's the spirit that'll
  G
reign, reign over me
D                     
   Where's the promise,
      G
from sea to shining sea
D                     
   Where's the promise,
      G
from sea to shining sea
A              G
 Wherever this flag is flown
A              G
 Wherever this flag is flown
A              G
 Wherever this flag is flown


[Chorus]
D                 G
 We take care of our own
D                 G
 We take care of our own

 Wherever this flag's flown
D                 G
 We take care of our own


[Chorus]
D                 G
 We take care of our own
D                 G
 We take care of our own
D                     G
 Wherever this flag's flown
D                G
 We take care of our own
