[Intro]
B E 6x


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

has gone dry as bone


[Chorus]
B                 E
 We take care of our own
B                 E
 We take care of our own
B                     E
 Wherever this flag's flown
B                 E
 We take care of our own


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


[Chorus]
B                 E
 We take care of our own
B                 E
 We take care of our own
B                     E
 Wherever this flag's flown
B                 E
 We take care of our own

[Verse]
B                E  
Where the eyes, the

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


[Chorus]
B                 E
 We take care of our own
B                 E
 We take care of our own
B                     E
 Wherever this flag's flown
B                 E
 We take care of our own


[Chorus]
B                 E
 We take care of our own
B                 E
 We take care of our own
B                     E
 Wherever this flag's flown
B                E
 We take care of our own
