VERSE 1:
G             D      C          D
Was it just a dream, were you so confused
G             D        C
Was it just a giant leap of logic
G                  D          C                D
Was it the time of year, that makes a state of fear
G                   Dm              F
Methods, were their motives for the action
                   Am
And did I hear you say
C  F                Am
My country right or wrong
G       D
My      Country oh so strong
   F         G
My country right or wrong

Do INTRO RIFF once:

VERSE 2
Did you save your face
Did you breach your faith
Women, there were children at the shelter
Now who can stop the hail
When human senses fail
There was never any warning, no escape

Did I hear you say
My country right or wrong
My country oh so strong           2X
My country going wrong
My country right or wrong
