[Verse 1]
       E              B             E                                B7
I hear people talking bad about the way we have to live here in this country
B7                                                                  E
Harpin' on the wars we fight, gripin' 'bout the way things ought to be
E                                                                   B7
I don't mind them switchin' sides and standin' up for things they believe in
             B7
When they're runnin' down our country, man
                                        E
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

[Chorus]
        E                               B7
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
B7                                                                  E
Runnin' down a way of life our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
   E
If you don't love it, leave it
                       E7           A
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
            B7
When you're runnin' down our country, hoss
                                       E
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

(Repeat intro riff)

[Verse 2]
  E               B
I read about some squirrely guy
    E                                    B7
Who claims that he just don't believe in fightin'
      B7                                                     E
And I wonder just how long the rest of us can count on bein' free
     E                                                               B7
They love our milk and honey but they preach about some other way of livin'
             B7
When they're runnin' down our country, man
                                        E
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

[Chorus]
        E                               B7
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
B7                                                                  E
Runnin' down a way of life our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
   E
If you don't love it, leave it
                       E7           A
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
            B7
When you're runnin' down our country, man
                                       E   C7
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me

[Chorus] (key change)
       F                               C7
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
C7                                                                  F
Runnin' down a way of life our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
   F
If you don't love it, leave it
                       F7           Bb
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
            C7
When you're runnin' down our country, hoss
                                       F
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
