Song:

   2        2    -1’    2      -2’    2     2     -1’    2

Some folks are born made to wave the flag

  -2      -1’        2     2        2    2

Ooh, they're red, white and blue

  2       2     -1’    2       2       -2’   2    -1’     2

And when the band plays "Hail to the chief"

-2        -1’     2    -1’    2  2     2   2

Ooh, they point the cannon at you

2     2     2  -2’ -2   -2’ 2   -2 -2    -1’   2 2 2     2

It ain't me, it ain't  m-e,  I ain't no senator's son

2    2     2   -2’  -2   -2’ 2 -2  -2    -1’   2  2      2     2

It ain't me, it ain't  m-e,  I ain't no fortunate one, no

 

    2      2     -1’    2     -2’ 2     2     -1’   2

Some folks are born silver spoon in hand

Lord, don't they help themselves

  2       2     -1’   2   2      -2’     2  -1’    2

But when the taxman comes to the door

  -2     -1’     2       -1’     2  -1’   2   2       2

Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale

 

2    2       -2’ -2  -2’ 2  -2  -2   -1’     2   2   2       2

It ain't me, it ain't m-e,  I ain't no millionaire's son,

2    2     2   -2’  -2  -2’  2  -2  -2  -1’   2   2   2    2     2

It ain't me, it ain't  m-e,  I ain't no fortunate one, no

 

     2      2   -1’  2 2  -2’     2    -1’     2

Some folks inherit star spangled eyes

 -2       -1’     2     2      2     2    2

Ooh, they send you down to war

   2       2    -1’    2     2         -2’     2         2      -1’     2

And when you ask them, "How much should we give?"

   2    2 -1’   2  -1’      2         2        2

They only answer More! more! more!

 

  2     2   -2’  -2  -2’ 2  -2  -2   -1’    2  2  2 2     2

It ain't me, it ain't m-e,  I ain't no     military   son,
