Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

x3

(ad lib on the for the build up)

I don't need to be a global citizen

Cause I'm blessed by nationality

I'm a member of a growing populace

We enforce our popularity

There are things that seem to pull us under and

There are things that drag us down

But there's a power and a vital presence

that's lurking all around

(here the tempo speeds up, listen to the song to get it)

We've Got the American Jesus

See him on the interstate

I feel sorry for the earth's population

Cause so few live in the USA

At least the foreigners can copy our morality

They can Visit but they cannot stay

Only precious few can garner the prosperity

That makes us walk with renewed confidence

We got a place to go when we die

And the architect resides right here

We've Got the American Jesus

See him on the interstate

(they palm mute although solo acoustic i prefer to do reggae upstrokes)

He's the farmer's barren fields

The force the army weilds

The expressions on the faces of the starving children

The power of the man

The fuel that drives the clan

The motive and the conscience of the murderer

The preacher on TV

The false sincerity

The form letter that's written by the big computer

The nuclear bomb

The kids with no mom

And I'm fearful that he's inside me

We've Got the American Jesus

See him on the interstate

(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.
