[Verse 1]
[G]Oh, my name [C]it ain't noth[Bm]in',
my [G]age [D]it [G]means less
The [D]country [G]I come from
[C]is called [G]the Midwest
I was taught [D]and [G]brought
up there [C]the laws to [G]abide
And that the land that I [C]live
[Bm]in has God o[D]n its side
[G]

[Verse 2]
Oh, the history books [C]tell [Bm]it,
they [D]tell it so [G]well
[D]The [G]cavalries charged, the [C]Indians [G]fell
[D]The [G]cavalries charged, the [C]Indians [G]died
Oh the country was [C]young[B][Bm]
[D]with God on its side
[G]

[Verse 3]
These Spanish- [C]Amer
[Bm]ican [D]War had [G]its day
And the [D]Civil War [G]too
[C]was soon laid [G]away
And the [D]names [G]of the heroes,
[C]I's made to mem[G]orize
With guns in their [C]hand[Bm] s and
[D]God on their side
[G]

[Verse 4]
Oh, the First World War,
[C]boys, it clo[Bm]sed out its fat[D]e[G]
The [D]reason for [G]fighting, [C]I never got [G]straight
But I [D]learned to ac[G]cept it,
ac[C]cept it [G]with pride
For you don't count the [C]dead[Bm]
[D]when God's on your side
[G]

[Verse 5]
The Second World [C]War
[Bm]came[D] to an end[G]
We [D]forgave [G]the Germans [C]and
we were [G]friends
[D]Though they murdered six [G]million,
in the [C]ovens they [G]fried
The Germans now [C]too[Bm]
have [D]God on their side
[G]

[Verse 6]
I've learned to hate [C]Rus[Bm]sians
all [D]through my whole [G]life
If [D]an other war [G]comes,
it's [C]them we must [G]fight
[D]To hate them and [G]fear them,
to [C]run and to [G]hide
And accept it all [C]bravely[Bm]
[D]with God on my side
[G]

[Verse 7]
But now we got [C]weapon
[Bm]s of the chemi[D]cal dust[G]
If [D]fire them we're [G]forced to
then [C]fire them we [G]must
One [D]push of the [G]button and a
[C]shot the [G]worldwide
And you never ask [C]ques[Bm]tions
when [D]God's on your side

[Verse 8]
[G]In a many dark hou[C]r,
[Bm]I've been [D]thinkin' about[G] this
[D]That Jesus [G]Christ was
be[C]trayed by a [G]kiss
But I [D]can't [G]think for you,
[C]you'll have to de[G]cide
Whether Judas [C]Iscari[Bm]ot
had [D]God on his side

[Verse 9]
[G]So now as I'm [C]leavin',
[Bm]I'm wear[D]y as Hell[G]
The con[D]fusion I'm [G]feelin',
ain't no [C]tongue can [G]tell
[D]The words fill my [G]head and [C]fall
[G]to the floor
That if God's on [C]our [Bm]side,
He'll [D]stop the next [G]war

[Outro 1]
