C           G7         C
Not so long ago in Oklahoma
    G7                               C    C7
The son of an Okie preacher knelt to pray
        F                           C
He said Lord I wanna be a Christian soldier just like you
    D7                              G7
And fight to build a new and better day

    C              G7             C
Now many years and miles from Oklahoma
     G7                                  C    C7
That same young Okie boy still kneels to pray
    F                                C
But he don't pray to be no Christian soldier anymore
                         G7              C  C7
He just prays to make it through another day

           F                              C
Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun
       F                                  C
And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry
          F             G7           C                  Am
But we're playin' cards writin' home and havin' lots of fun
D7                                G7
Tellin' jokes and learnin' how to die

C            G7                               C
You know the things I've come to know seem so confusing
G7                                          C     C7
It's gettin' hard to tell what's wrong from right
        F                             C
I can't separate the winners from the losers anymore
                         G7            C     C7
And I'm thinking of just givin' up the fight

           F                              C
Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun
       F                                  C
And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry
          F             G7           C                   Am
But we're playin' cards writin' home and ain't we havin' fun
D7                             G7
Turnin' on and learnin' how to die
