 This is the closest I've been able to come to figuring out the Star
 Spangled Banner.  If you make any corrections, please let me know.
 Enjoy!

   ^^^ These 2's should be 4's.

                        There should be a 4 between 2 and 5 here.^^^
 
 (I assume that "full bend" in the first line means you bend it so that it
 sounds two frets higher; if that's the case, then that's fine.)
 
 
 Here's some chords that I scraped together (in C, not E):
 
 THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER (Francis Scott Key)
 --------------------------------------------
 [I suspect that some of these chords are very subject to improvisation;
  in fact, if you wanted to, you could pretty much play a different chord
  for each note, by playing C under C, E, or G, F under F, A, or C, and so
  on, sort of like I did for the very last line.  So I just wrote down my
  own little interpretation.]
  
    C       G   C          Am        D7 G
 Oh say can you see by the dawn's early light
         C          G      F      C          G    C
 What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming
 G           C           G      C                 Am  D7   G
 Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight
          C           G       F       C      G  C
 O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming
         C            G                Dm          F
 And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air
      C                 G     F        C    Am  D7    G
 Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there
    C              F             Dm         Gsus G
 Oh say, does that star-spangled banner yet wa - ave
          C G  C  F   C            Am      G   C
 O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave
