[Em] [C]
Oh my name [F] it ain't [Em] Nile, it [C] ain't Lowe.
The country I come from is called the Midway.
[F] I was taught [C] and brought up there [F] the laws [C] to abide.
And that the land that I [Em] live in has God [C] on its side.
[F] [Em]
[C]
All the history books [Em] tell it, they tell it [C] so well.
The cavalry's charged, [F] the [C] Indians fell.
[Em] The [C] cavalry's charged, [F] the [C] Indians died.
Oh the country was [Em] young with God [C] on its side.
[F] [Em]
[C]
The Spanish
[G]-American [C] war had its day.
[A] And the Civil [C] War too was [F] soon [C] laid away.
And the names of the heroes [F] I was made [C] to memorize.
With guns in their
[Em] hands and God [C] on their side.
[F] [Em]
[C]
The First World [Em] War [G] boys, it closed out [C] its fate.
The reason for fighting [F] it I never [C] got straight.
[F] But I [G] learned [C] to accept it, [F] accept [C] it with pride.
For you don't count the [Em] dead when God's [C] on your side.
[F] [Em] [G]
[C]
The Second World [Em]
War, it came to [C] an end.
We forgave the Germans [F] and then [C] we were friends.
Though they murdered six million [F] in the ovens [C] they fried.
The Germans [F] vowed [Em] to have God on [C] their side.
[F]
[Em] [G] [C]
I've learned to hate [Em] Russians all through my [C] whole life.
If another war [F] comes, it's them we [C] must fight.
[G] To hate [C] them and fear them, [F] to run [C] and to hide.
And accept it all [Em] bravely with [C] God on my side.
[F]
[G] [C]
But now we [F] got [Em] weapons [G] of chemical [C] dust.
If five of them were forced to, [F] then [C] five of them we must.
One push of the button and [F] it shot the [C] world wide.
And you never ask [Em] [G] questions when God's on [C] your side.
[F] [Em] [C]
Through many dark [Em] hour I've been thinking [C] about this.
That [Em] Jesus [C]
Christ was [F] betrayed by [C] a kid.
But I can't think for you, you'll have to decide.
Whether Judas [Em] Iscariot had God on [C] his side.
[F] [Em] [G]
[C]
So now as I'm [Em] leaving [G] I'm weary [C] as hell.
The [Em] confusion [C] I'm feeling [F] ain't no [C] tongue can tell.
The words fill my head and they fall to the floor.
And if God [F] is on [Em] our side, [G] he'll stop the next [C] war.
