[Intro]
C F 6x


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

has gone dry as bone


[Chorus]
C                 F
 We take care of our own
C                 F
 We take care of our own
C                     F
 Wherever this flag's flown
C                 F
 We take care of our own


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


[Chorus]
C                 F
 We take care of our own
C                 F
 We take care of our own
C                     F
 Wherever this flag's flown
C                 F
 We take care of our own

[Verse]
C                F  
Where the eyes, the

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


[Chorus]
C                 F
 We take care of our own
C                 F
 We take care of our own
C                     F
 Wherever this flag's flown
C                 F
 We take care of our own


[Chorus]
C                 F
 We take care of our own
C                 F
 We take care of our own
C                     F
 Wherever this flag's flown
C                F
 We take care of our own
