Spoken: "The British are coming! The British are coming!"
VERSE 1
A D
Now the ride of Paul Revere
G C
set the nation on its ear
E
'And the shot at Lexington heard 'round the world
A D
When the British fired in the early dawn
G C
the war of independence had begun
A F G A DE
the die was cast, the rebel flag unfurled
A D
And On to Concord marched the foe
G C
to seize the arsenal there you know
A F# C# DE
Awakin' folks and searching all around
A D
So our militia stopped them in their tracks
G C
at the old North Bridge we turned them back
A F G A DE
And chased those redcoats back to Boston town
C Bb
Now the shot heard round the world
Eb F
was the start of the revolution
Eb D G
The minutemen were ready, on the move
Ab Eb
Take your powder take your guns
Bb C
report to General Washington
F Eb E
hurry men there's not an hour to lose

God bless America
