Oh, say can you see
^E ^D ^C E-F# G
By the dawns early light
G G ^E-^D ^C B
What so proudly we hailed
A B ^C-^C G E – C
At the twilights last gleaming?
E G C E G ^C
Who’s broad striped and bright stars
^E ^D ^C-E-F# G
Through the perilous fight
G G ^E-^D ^C B
O’er the ramparts we watched
A B ^C-^C-G E – C
Were so gallantly streaming?
^E ^E ^E-^F ^G ^G
And the rocket’s red glare!
^F ^E ^D-^E ^F ^F
The bombs bursting in air!

Gave proof through the night
A B ^C E F# G
That our flag was still there.

And the home of the brave?
