Born In The Usa Chords - Bruce Springsteen
Born In The Usa Chords
SONG: Born in the USA ARTIST: Bruce Springsteen ALBUM: Born in the USA TABBED BY: Kev Short Start out with clean guitar then put a bit of distortion on when the song kicks in fully. Standard tuning for this, as ever, the recording is the only way to get the timing. For the faster parts of the song, strumming the chords instead of simply playing them and letting them ring could sound better. For the keyboard medley play this: E|--------------------------------|4-------------------------------| B|--------7---------------5---7---|----5-------7-------------------| G|--------------------------------|--------------------------------| D|--------------------------------|--------------------------------| A|--------------------------------|--------------------------------| E|7-------------------------------|--------------------------------| E|--------------------------------|4-------------------------------| B|--------7---------------5---7---|----7-------4-------------------| G|--------------------------------|------------------------6---4---| D|--------------------------------|--------------------------------| A|--------------------------------|--------------------------------| E|7-------------------------------|--------------------------------| Rythym: B Born down in a dead man's town The first kick I took was when I hit the ground E End up like a dog that's been beat too much Till you spend half your life just covering up B Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A. E B I was born in the U.S.A., born in the U.S.A. now B Got in a little hometown jam So they put a rifle in my hand E Sent me off to a foreign land To go and kill the yellow man B Born in the U.S.A., I was born in the U.S.A.

About the artist behind Born In The Usa Chords:
Springsteen's lyrics often concern men and women struggling to make ends meet. He has gradually become identified with progressive politics. Springsteen is also noted for his support of various relief and rebuilding efforts in New Jersey and elsewhere, and for his response to the September 11, 2001 attacks, on which his album The Rising reflects.
Springsteen's recordings have tended to alternate between commercially accessible rock albums and somber folk-oriented works. Much of his iconic status stems from the concerts and marathon shows in which he and the E Street Band present intense ballads, rousing anthems, and party rock and roll songs, amongst which Springsteen intersperses long, whimsical or deeply emotional stories.
Springsteen has long had the nickname "The Boss", a term which he was initially reported to hate but now seems to have come to terms with, as he sometimes jokingly refers to himself as such on stage. The nickname originated when a young Springsteen, playing club gigs with a band in the 1960s, took on the task of collecting the band's nightly pay and distributing it amongst his bandmates.[2]
