[Eb] _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ This one's called [Ab] _ [Eb] _ _ [Bb] _
[Eb] With God on Your [Ab] Side.
[Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Oh, my name, it [Ab] means _ [Gm] nothing.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] My age, it [Eb] means less. _ _
_ _ _ The [Ab]
[Eb] country I come _ _ _ from _ [Ab] is called the [Eb] Midwest. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] I was brought [Gm] up [Eb] there and taught there _ _ _ [Ab] the laws to [Eb] _ abide. _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] And the land that [Abm] I _ [Gm] live in _ _ _ [Bb] has God on [Eb] its side. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
All the history [Abm] books tell [Gm] it, _ _ _ [Bb] they tell it so [Eb] well. _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Gm] The _ [Eb] cavalry's _ charred, _ _ _ _ [Ab] the Indians [Eb] fell.
_ _ _ _ _ _
The _ cavalry's _ charred, _ _ _ _ [Ab] the Indians [Eb] _
died. _ _ _ _ _
Oh, the country [Abm] was young [Gm] _ with _ _ God [Bb] _ [Eb] on its side. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Oh, the Spanish [Abm] _ _ [Gm]-American _
_ [Bb] war had [Eb] its day. _
_ _ _ _ _
And [Ab] the [Gm] Civil War [Eb] too _ _ soon _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ [Gm] laid [Eb] away. _
_ _ _ _ _ _
And the names of the _ _ _ heroes _ _ [Ab] I was made to [Eb] memorize
_ _ _ _ _ _
With guns in [Abm] their _
_ [Gm] hands and _ _ God [Eb] on their side. _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Oh, the First [Abm] World War, [Gm]
boys, [Bb] it came [Eb] and it went.
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] The [Gm] reason [Eb] for _ _ fighting [Ab] I never [Gm] [Eb] did get. _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] But I [Gm] learned to [Eb] _ _ accept it, _ [Ab] accept [Gm] it with [Eb] pride. _ _ _ _
_ _ For you don't count [Abm] the _ [Gm] dead when _
[Bbm] _ God's on [Eb] your side. _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ When the Second [Ab] World _ _ [Gm] _ War _ [Bb] came to [Eb] an end, _
[Abm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Ab] [Gm] We forgave [Eb] the _ Germans _ _ [Ab] [Eb] and we were friends. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ab] Though they [Gm] killed [Eb] six million _ _ _ [Ab] and the ovens [Eb] they fried, _ _ _
_ _ _ The Germans [Ab] now too _ [Gm] have _ [Bb] God on [Eb] their side. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] I've learned [Abm] to hate _ [G] Russians _
_ [Bb] all through my [Eb] whole life. _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] If another [Eb] war _ _ starts, _ it's them we must fight. _
_ _ _ _ _
To [Gm] hate [Bb] them [Eb] and _ fear them, to run and to hide, _ _ _
_ _ _ And accept it all [Abm] _ _ [G] bravely _ [Bb] with God on [Eb] my side. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb]
But now we [Abm] got [Gm] weapons _ _ [Bb] of the chemical [Eb] dust.
_ [Abm] _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] If [Gm] fire [Eb] them we're _ forced to, then fire them we must. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Abm] One [Gm] push of [Eb] the button _ _ _ and they shot the world wide. _ _
_ _ _ _ And you never [Abm] ask _ [Gm] questions _ _ _ _ [Bb] when God's on your [Eb] side. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Bb] In the many [Abm] dark _ [Gm] hours _
[Bb] I've been thinking about [Eb] this,
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ That Jesus _ _ Christ was betrayed by a kiss. _
But _ _ _ _ I can't think for _ _ _ you'll have to decide _ _
Whether _ _ _ _ _ Judas [Ab] _ _ [Gm] Iscariot _ [Bb] had God on his [Eb] side. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ So now as [Ab] I'm _ [Gm] leaving, _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] I'm weary as [Eb] hell. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ The confusion I'm _ _ feeling _ _ [Ab] ain't no [Bb]
tongue [Eb] can tell. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
The words fill my _ head _ _ [Gm] and fall to the [Eb] floor. _ _
_ _ _ _ That if God's on our [Abm] _
[Gm] side, _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] he'll stop the [Eb] next war. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [N] _ _ _ _

_ _ _ sorry I only got a few more, at least as far as I know it's the last.
I gotta sing something to tell you something. _
