Verse 
              Em 
O say can you see, 
                    D 
By the dawn's early light, 
        G          D 
What so proudly we hailed 
       G 
At the twilight's last gleaming, 
                               Em 
Whose broad stripes and bright stars 
                     D 
Through the perilous fight, 
         G           D 
O'er the ramparts we watched, 
        G 
Were so gallantly streaming? 
        G 
And the rockets' red glare, 
          D 
The bombs bursting in air, 
     G                 D 
Gave proof through the night 
         Em             D 
That our flag was still there 
  G             Em 
O say does that star-spangled 
Em6        D 
Banner yet wave 
         G           G6 
O'er the land of the free 
        G           Em 
And the home of the brave?
