'The Fightin' Side Of Me' by Merle Haggard - Guitar Tutorial

             G  
I hear people talking bad 
                                            D7  
About the way we have to live here in this country 
Harping on the wars we fight 
                                         G  
And griping about the way things oughta be 
  
And I don't mind 'em switching sides 
                                   D7  
And standing up for things they believe in 
When they're running down my country man 
                                         G  
They're walking on the fighting side of me  
  
 D7             G                             D7  
Yeah they're walking on the fighting side of me 
Running down the way of life 
                       C                   G  
Our fighting men have fought and died to keep 
If you don't love it leave it 
                           G7     C  
Let this song I'm singing be a warning 
           D7  
If you're running down my country man 
                                        G  
You're walking on the fighting side of me  
  
I read about some squirrelly guy 
                                     D7  
Who claims he just don't believe in fighting 
And I wonder just how long 
                                   G  
The rest of us can count on being free 
  
They love our milk and honey 
                                         D7  
But they preach about some other way of living 
When they're running down my country hoss 
                                         G  
They're walking on the fighting side of me
