May the Lord be on our side

This inferno turned me blind
There was fire and smoke all around

Dead bodies and blood everywhere

In this unholy ground

Now the future is no more
We're all lost to this vicious whore
D#
When the victory's won

I'm a fatherless son

We went out to fight for glory

Only one of us came home

I sit here on my porch
A#
As an old and lonely man

Sometimes I recall

When terror struck the land

Was it right to go to arms

To defend the freedom rights
D Gm
I am sure or else I've lived upon a lie
