With God on Our Side

C
F
Em

Oh my name it is nothin'

G
C

My age it means less

C
C

The country I come from

F
C

Is called the Midwest

C
C

I's taught and brought up there

F
C

The laws to abide

C
F
Em

And that land that I live in

G
C

Has God on its side.

C
F
Em

Oh the history books tell it

G
C

They tell it so well

C
C

The cavalries charged

F
C

The Indians fell

C
C

The cavalries charged

G
C

The Indians died

C
F
Em

Oh the country was young

G
C

With God on its side.

C
F
Em

Oh the Spanish-American

G
C

War had its day

C
C

And the Civil War too

F
C

Was soon laid away

C
C

And the names of the heroes

F
C

I's made to memorize

C
F
Em

With guns in their hands

G
C

And God on their side.

Oh the First World War, boys

It closed out its fate

The reason for fighting

I never got straight

But I learned to accept it

Accept it with pride

For you don't count the dead

When God's on your side.

When the Second World War

Came to an end

We forgave the Germans

And we were friends

Though they murdered six million

In the ovens they fried

The Germans now too

Have God on their side.

I've learned to hate Russians

All through my whole life

If another war starts

It's them we must fight

To hate them and fear them

To run and to hide

And accept it all bravely

With God on my side.

But now we got weapons

Of the chemical dust

If fire them we're forced to

Then fire them we must

One push of the button

And a shot the world wide

And you never ask questions

When God's on your side.

In a many dark hour

I've been thinkin' about this

That Jesus Christ

Was betrayed by a kiss

But I can't think for you

You'll have to decide

Whether Judas Iscariot

Had God on his side.

So now as I'm leavin'

I'm weary as Hell

The confusion I'm feelin'

Ain't no tongue can tell

The words fill my head

And fall to the floor

If God's on our side

He'll stop the next war.
