WITH GOD ON OUR SIDE - Bob Dylan [MTV-unplugged version]
[C F C F C F G F C]
[C]Oh my name it is [F]no[G]thin' my age [F]it mean [C]less
The country I come from [F]is called the Mid[C]west
I's taught and brought up there [F]The laws to [C]abide
and that land that I [F]li[G]ve in Has god [F]on its [C]side.
Oh the history book [F]tell i[G]t they tell it [F]so [C]well
The cavalries charged and [F]the Indians [C]fell
The cavalries charged and [F]the Indians [C]died
Oh the country was [F]yo[G]ung with god [F]on its [C]side.
Oh the Spanish-[F]Ameri[G]can war had [F]its [C]day
And the Civil War too was [F]soon laid [C]away
and the names of the heroes [F]I was made to [C]memorize
with guns in their [F]ha[G]nds and god [F]on their [C]side.
The First World [F]War, [G]boys it closed out [F]its [C]fate
The reason for fighting [F]I never got straig[C]t
but I learned to accept it, [F]accept it with [C]pride
and you don't count the [F]de[G]ad when god's on [F]your [C]side.
[... Additional lyrics ...]
But now we got [F]wea[G]pons of the chemic[F]al [C]dust
if fire them we're forced to, [F]then fire we [C]must
one push of the button [F]and shot the world [C]wide
and you never ask [F]quest[G]ions when God's [F]on his [C]side
[ Repeat without words ]
In a many dark [F]hou[G]r I've been thinkin' ab[F]out [C]this
that Jesus Christ was [F]betrayed by a [C]kiss
But I can't think for you, [F]you'll have to [C]decide
wheter Judas Is[F]cari[G]ot, had God [F]on [C]his side.
So now as I'm [F]leavi[G]n', I'm [F]weary as [C]hell
the confusion I'm feelin' [F]ain't no tongue can [C]tell
Who words fill my head and [F]fall to the [C]floor
If God's on [F]our si[G]de he'll stop [F]the next [C]war.
[... Additional lyrics ...]
When the Second World War came to an end
we forgave the Germans and we were friends
Though they murdered six million in the ovens they fried
the Germans now too have god on their side.
I've learned to hate Russians all through my wole life
if another war starts It's them we must fight
To hate them and fear them to run and to hide
and accept i all bravely with god on our side.
