Am I don't need to be a F global citizen
C Cause I'm blessed by natio G nality
Am I'm a member of a F growing populace
C We enforce our popu G larity
Am There are things that seem to F pull us under and
C There are things that G drag us down
Am But there's a power and a F vital presence
C E*
that's lurking all around
(here the tempo speeds up, listen to the song to get it)
Am We've F Got the Am C erican J G esus
Am See him F on the i C nterst G ate
Am We've F Got the Am C erican J G esus
Am F C G Am E*
Am I feel sorry for the F earth's population
C Cause so few live in the G USA
Am At least the foreigners can F copy our morality
C They can Visit but they G cannot stay
Am Only precious few can F garner the prosperity
C That makes us walk with G renewed confidence
Am We got a place to F go when we die
C E*
And the architect resides right here
Am We've F Got the Am C erican J G esus
Am See him F on the i C nterst G ate
Am We've F Got the Am C erican J G esus
Am F C G Am E*
(they palm mute although solo acoustic i prefer to do reggae upstrokes)
Am He's the farmer's barren fields
F The force the army weilds
C The expressions on the faces of the st G arving children
Am The power of the man
F The fuel that drives the clan
C The motive and the conscience of the G murderer
Am The preacher on TV
F The false sincerity
C The form letter that's written by the G big computer
Am The nuclear bomb
F The kids with no mom
C G E*
And I'm fearful that he's inside me
Am We've F Got the Am C erican J G esus
Am See him F on the i C nterst G ate
Am We've F Got the Am C erican J G esus
Am F C G Am E*
(this next part is the backing vocals sung during the bridge - farmer's barren fields
- but i change it up because it is solo acoustic. i use the same chords as the bridge
the following lyrics)
In God
We Trust
Cause he is one of us
Break down
Cave in
He will redeem your sin
Good heart
Clear mind
And infinately kind
You lose
We win E*
He is our champion
chorus again (or twice if you want) and you're done.
peace.
