Our Flag Still Waves
I built the song in BIAB and finished the tracks in Studio One. I played the guitar solo and string parts.
The style I used for this song was _BG_BDFS.STY. I used the following RealTracks:
Bass=1288 Banjo=426 Mandolin=432 Guitar=431 Fiddle=434

Below is the link to my song Our Flag Still Waves:

Verse 1:
I get tears in my eyes and I swell up with pride when I hear “God Bless America” ring
There's a thrill in my heart when the melody starts and I can't help but stand up and sing
Thank God! Thank God! And I pray we'll continue to see
That our flag still waves o’er the home of the brave in this beautiful land of the free
Verse 2:
I'm so proud of the men and the women who stand up to see that we all remain free
They will fight day and night to protect all our lives and will offer their own if need be
Thank God! Thank God! They give of themselves willingly
So our flag still waves o’er the home of the brave in this beautiful land of the free
Break:
My country tis of thee. Sweet land of liberty. Of thee I sing
For our flag still waves o’er the home of the brave in this beautiful land of the free
Verse 3:
I'll forever be true to the red white and blue and the freedom she's given to me
And remember the price of the great sacrifice for our freedom that never comes free
Thank God! Thank God! And I pray we’ll continue to see
That our flag still waves o’er the home of the brave in this beautiful land of the free

Nice tribute Barry,
Well written and performed.
I think this could have some longevity as a patriotic anthem.

Given the current strife we are experiencing, I think we all do need to be a little more conscious of what the USA stands for.

I can only hope your message is received as a call for us to unite rather than divide.
