G                    F 
Some folks are born made to wave the flag, 
C7                          G 
ooh, they're red, white and blue. 
G                        F 
And when the band plays "Hail to the chief" 
C7                             G 
they point the cannon right at you. 


G            D7           C7               G 
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no senator's son. 
G            D7           C7               G 
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no fortunate one. 

G                     F 
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand, 
C7                         G 
Lord, don't they help themselves. 
G                      F 
But when the tax man comes to the door: 
C7                                    G 
"Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale." 

G             D7          C7                   G 
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no millionaire's son. 
G            D7            C7              G 
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no fortunate one.

G                   F         
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes, 
C7                         G 
ooh, they send you down to war. 
G                         F 
And when you ask them: "How much should we give?" 
C7                       G 
Oh, they only answer: "More, more, more" 

G             D7           C7               G 
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no military's son. 
G             D7           C7               G 
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no fortunate one.
