Patriotic Songs Of America Lyrics
Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA” aka “Proud to be American”—what do you think of this song?
I believe it’s a bad ironic joke to hear this song, the longer the war drags on. It’s such a slap in the face to send brave noble soldiers in a war that serves no patriotic purpose whatsoever, and was started on false pretexts (weapons of mass destruction, al-Quaeda being active in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq)
The song itself is sing-songy sentimental country pop—the very kind of stuff that makes my brain atrophy. Ouch! Rock out, already.
Lee Greenwood strikes me as a complete buffoon.
The lyrics are laughable and so untrue in Bush’s America, so even if this was reworked into something I like (a prog-metal jam in minor key, for example) it would still nauseate me.
Yuck.
I disagree. At the time the actual song was written, the Iraq war didn’t exist. Lee Greenwood is expressing his pride and patriotism by being all inclusive in his song, of the whole USA. I know several people that have been to Iraq and back and would have to say that you must’ve gotten your information from some very angry people, which are all too eager to follow the crowd since that’s the popular thing to do now a days. These people that I’ve spoken too, fortunately and obviously, made it back home to their loved ones and have expressed nothing but pride in serving their country. A majority of those interviewed on TV have expressed pride as well. While there will always be those that don’t feel that way, I personally feel the majority does. Take a deep breath and be thankful for what you do have, which at this point, is your personal freedom.
I do like the song and am very thankful to be an American.

Vintage Guitar Amplifiers
We will instead use easy to learn guitar tab or guitar tablature.Vintage Guitar Amplifiers Let’s learn Yankee Doodle!
Yankee Doodle “Yankee Doodle” is a well-known American song, today sung patriotically. Originally it was a satirical song.
The first verse and refrain goes like this:
Yankee Doodle went to town
A-Riding on a pony
He stuck a feather in his hat
And called it macaroni
Yankee Doodle, keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
What is guitar tab?
We will use guitar tablature so you will not need to read sheet music notation. You will only use the four thinnest strings on the guitar. The string with the highest pitch is called the first string or E-string.
Tablature is a form of musical notation, often with numbers and letters, which tells the player where to place their fingers on the guitar fretboard rather than which pitches to play.
I will use my own type of guitar tab notation today to make sure that the guitar tab is correctly displayed on article sites. On my site you will find many popular melodies with the more common guitar tab staff notation.
The six strings on your guitar is numbered from the one with the highest pitch. This string is called the first string.
Look at this guitar tab notation:
11 12 03
As you can see the numbers are organized in pairs.
The first number in the pair tells you what fret to press down and the second number what string to play.
11 means that you press down the first fret on the first string. 12 that you press down the first fret on the second string. 03 that you play the third open string which means that you pluck the string without pressing down a fret.
Let’s start with the first part of the melody with guitar tab:
Yankee Doodle went to town
12 12 32 01 12 01 32
12 tells you to play the first fret on the second string. 01 means that you play the open first string.
This type of guitar tab doesn’t indicate the length of the notes. If you sing the lyrics you will better feel how to play the notes.
The names of the four notes you have played are C C D E C E D
How do you play guitar tablature with your left hand?
If you want to use your left hand in a professional way I suggest that you play the guitar tab notes on the first fret with your first finger, the notes on the second fret with your middle finger and the notes on the third fret with your ring finger.
Let’s proceed with the next words:

A-Riding on a pony
03 12 12 32 01 12 02
The names of the seven notes are G C C D E C B
How do you play guitar tab with your right hand?
Well, there are many ways to pluck or play the strings with your right hand. The easiest way is to use your right hand thumb. I suggest that you use your right hand thumb and concentrate on your left hand fingerings.
Here is the next lyrics and guitar tablature:
He stuck a feather in his hat
03 12 12 32 01 11 01 32
The names of the tablature notes are G C C D E F E D
And called it macaroni
12 02 03 23 02 12 12
The names of the guitar tab notes: C B G A B C C
Learn to play guitar tablature part 2
Here comes the lyrics and the guitar tab for the refrain:
Yankee Doodle, keep it up
23 02 23 03 23 02 12
Guitar tablature notes: A B A G A B C
Yankee Doodle dandy
03 23 03 34 24 03
Guitar tab notes: G A G F E G
Mind the music and the step
23 02 23 03 23 02 12
Guitar tablature notes: A B A G A B C
And with the girls be handy
23 03 12 02 32 12 12
Guitar tab notes: A G C B D C C
