With God On Our Side(Chords)

	        INTRO:  C  F  G  C  F  G  C 

                 C    F   G                  C 
Oh my name it is nothing    my age it means less 
                    F                          C 
The country I come from     is called the Midwest 
                     F                         C  
I was taught brought up there    the laws too abide 
                    C     F G                 C 
And the land that I live in   has God on its side 

                      C   F  G                   C 
Oh the history books tell it   they tell it so well 
                  F                    C 
The cavalry charged   and the Indians fell 
                 F                     C 
The cavalry charged    and the Indians died 
                     C   F   G                  C 
Oh the country was young and   with God on its side 

Well the Spanish American War it had its day 
And the Civil War too though it was soon laid away 
And the names of the heroes I was taught to memorize 
With guns in their hands and God on their side 

INTRO 

Oh the first World War boys it came and it went 
The reason for fighting I never did get 
But I learned to accept it and accept it with pride 
'Cause you don't the dead boys when God's on your side 

When the Second World War came to an end 
We forgave the Germans and then we were friends 
Though they murdered six million in the ovens they fried 
You see the Germans now too had God on their side 

I've learned to hate the Russians all through my whole life 
And if another wars come 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 our side 

INTRO (2x) 

Now we got the weapons of 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 
No you never ask questions when God's on your side 

In a many dark hour I've been thinkin' 'bout this 
That Jesus Christ was betrayed by a kiss 
But I can't think for you no you'll have to decide 
Whether Judas Escariot had God on his side 

So now that I'm leavin' I'm weary as hell 
The confusion I'm feelin' no tongue can tell 
The words fill my head and they fall to the floor 
But if God's on our side he'll stop the next war 

Mmmmmmm.......
