The Star-spangled Banner Tabulatur von Tradicional

[Verse 1]
G C      G   Am   E      Am        D  G
O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
        C         G             C         G    C
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
G           C          G      Am    E           Am  D    G
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
         C          G                C     G  C
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
                                      G
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
     C                G              Am       D     G
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
  C            F            Dm         G
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
         C               Am      C      G   C
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
 
 
[Verse 2]
G      C       G  Am   E           Am       D   G
On the shore dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
          C            G             C      G C
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
G       C         G   Am      E        Am  D    G
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
      C       G              C          G  C
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
                                G
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
        C      G           Am        D   G
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
         C            F        Dm          G
'Tis the star-spangled banner, O long may it wave
         C               Am      C      G   C
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
 
 
[Verse 3]
G         C      G    Am  E  Am      D  G
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
         C       G           C       G  C
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
G C       G Am   E          Am       D  G
A home and a country, should leave us no more?
      C               G              C         G  C
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
                         G
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
         C        G              Am       D   G
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
        C            F        Dm           G
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave,
         C               Am      C      G   C
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
 
 
[Verse 4]
G C      G  Am E        Am      D     G
O thus be it e_ver, when freemen shall stand
   C               G             C      G C
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation.
G          C      G   Am     E       Am        D    G
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the Heav'n rescued land
           C         G                 C        G C
Praise the Power that hath made and pre-served us a nation!
                               G
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
    C          G          Am     D   G
And this be our motto: 'In God is our trust.'
        C            F        Dm            G
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
         C               Am      C      G   C    G
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
