#Intro
[G] [C] [G] [D] [G] [C] [G] [D] [G]
#Verse 1
Upon a [G]missile rode the Lord roaring [C]justice is the [G]sword
He was melting off the faces of the [D]damned
You have [G]heard of Noah's flood that tale will [C]pale against the [G]blood
Pouring out and boiling in [D]uranium [G]sands
Don't you [C]know atomic power is just [G]God's celestial shower
There are those that he has chosen and those that he has [D]not
There are [G]many who will die in the [C]Lord's plan by and [G]by
[G]But it won't be you or I thanks to the great [D]Caucasian [G]God
#Chorus
I said "[C]"Lord be [G]thou near
Blot out everything that's strange to me everything that's [D]queer
I said "[G]"Lord don't be [C]far
I am [G]in need of a friend indeed the great [D]Caucasian [G]God
#Verse 2
Does not the [G]Lord abide in Texas down in [C]Waco
And the rest of every Israel that hubris e[D]ever claimed
Don't [G]the Lord abide in prisons full [C]of men with ho[G]holy visions
[G]Don't the Lord abide in every tent and cave
Does not [C]the Lord abide in bunkers every [G]rifle without number
Every ruby ridge and Rittenhouse and [D]home
Does not the [G]Lord abide in fear [C]in tactical gear
[G]Don't the Lord abide in every [D]hell[G]hellbent soul
#Chorus
I said "[C]"Lord be [G]thou near
Blot out everything that's strange to me everything that's [D]queer
I said "[G]"Lord don't be [C]far
I am [G]in need of a friend indeed the great [D]Caucasian [G]God [G#]
#Bridge
[G#]I want to take a moment to talk with y'all about death
[G#]There are many that fear death coming quick and swift in the night
[G#]Taking from them the toil of their hands and the fruits of their labor
[G#]But I say unto you today there ain't a cruer trick that death has played on man
[G#]Than fooling a man into thinking that while his soul is dead inside
He is in fact [A]alive on the outside
#Verse 3
[A]There is a foolish generation squandered [D]all their fathers gave [A]them
They are running out of [E]time left to enjoy
They would [A]kill and eat their own if the [D]TV told them [A]so
So they're keen to watch the world burn [E]just to prove a [A]point
#Chorus
I said "[D]"Lord be [A]thou near
Blot out everything that's strange to me everything that's [E]queer
I said "[A]"Lord don't be [D]far
I am [A]in need of a friend indeed the great Cau[E]Caucasian [A]God
I am in need of a friend indeed the [E]great Caucasian [D]Go[A]God [E] [A]
