[Intro]

[Verse]

Am Dm C F C Dm

Oh say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,

Am C Dm G Am

What so proudly we hailed, at the twilight's last gleaming?

Am Dm C Fm C Dm

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight

Am C Dm G Am

O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?

Am Dm

And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Am C Dm Am C Dm

Gave proof through the night, that our flag was still there

Am Em C G Dm

Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wa - ve

Am E Am Dm Am

O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave
