With God on Our Side Buddy Miller
INTRO: C F G C F G C
Oh my name it is [C]nothi[F]ng [G] my age it means l[C]ess
The country I come f[F]rom is called the Midwe[C]st
I was taught brought [F]up there the laws too a[C]bide
And the land that I [C]live i[F]n [G] has God on its s[C]ide
Oh the history books t[C]ell [F]it [G] they tell it so we[C]ll
The cavalry charge[F]d and the Indians f[C]ell
The cavalry charg[F]ed and the Indians [C]died
Oh the country was yo[C]ung [F]and [G] with God on its s[C]ide
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
