[Intro 1]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
My [G]name it is nothing,
my [C]age it means [G]less
The country I come from is
[C]a part of the Free [G]West
I was taught and brought up there,
its [C]laws to [G]abide
And that the land that I [C]live
[G]in has [D]God on its side
[G]

[Verse 2]
Oh the history books tell it,
they [C]tell it so [G]well
The cavalries charged, [C]the Indians [G]fell
The cavalries charged, [C]the Indians [G]died
For the coun[C]try was [G]young with

[Interlude 1]
God on its side
[G][C][G][D][G][D][G]

[Verse 3]
Oh, the [G]first World [Em]War,
[G]it cam[C]e and it wen[G]t
The reason for [Em]fighting, I [C]never could [G]get
But I learned to accept it,
ac[C]cept it with [G]pride
For you don't count the [C]dead
[G]when God's on [D]your [G]side

[Verse 4]
[G]
And then the second World [C]War,
[G]it cam[C]e to an en [G]d
We for[Abdim]gave the Germ[Em]ans and
[C]now we are friend[G]s
Though they murdered six million,
in the [C]ovens they [G]fried
The Germans now, [C]too,
[G]have God [C]on their [G]side

[Interlude 2]
[C][G][C][Am][G]

[Verse 5]
But [G]now we have [C]weapon
[G]s of c[C]hemical d[G]ust
And if fire them we're [Em]forced to,
why then fire [C]them we [G]must
One push of the but[Bm]ton a[Em]nd
a [C]shot the [G]worldwide
And you never ask [C]question[G]s
when God's [C]on your [G]side

[Verse 6]
[G]
Though many a long [C]hour[G][Abdim][G]
I've [C]thought on [G]this[Abdim][G]
That Jesus [Em]Christ was
[C]betrayed by a [G]kiss
But I can't think for [Bm]you,
[Em]you will have [C]to de ci[G]de
Whether Judas Iscari[C]ot[G][Abdim][G]

[Interlude 3]
had God on his side
[C][G][C][Am][G]

[Verse 7]
And [G]now as I [C]leave [G]you,
I'm [C]weary as [G]hell
The confusion I'm [Em]feelin',
there ain't [C]no tongue can [G]tell
The words fill my [G]head[Bm]
[Em]and drop[C] to th[G]e floor
That if God's on our [C]side,
[G]he'll sto[D]p the next war[G]
[C][G][D][G]
