Who Would Jesus Bomb

     D
I've seen you in the markets
     A
I've seen you in the streets
    D                    G
And at your political conventions
D
Talking of your crusade
A
Talking of your nation
    D                           
And other things too terrible to 
 G
mention
           G
And you proclaim your Christianity
       A
You proclaim your love of God
    D                    G
You talk of apple pie and Mom
                        A          
I just got one question and I want 
                   D
an answer, tell me
                A
Who would Jesus bomb?

      Bm                   D
Maybe Jesus would bomb the Syrians
       Em                    D
'cause they're not Jews like him
      Bm                   D
Maybe Jesus would bomb the Afghans
        Em               A
On some kind of vengeful whim
      G                    A
Maybe Jesus would drive an M-1 tank
    D                 G
And he would shoot Saddam
G               D
Who would Jesus bomb?

[Verse 2]
          D
Yes, I've seen you on the TV
    A
And on the battleships
     D                             
I've seen you in a house up on the 
     G
hill
D                                
And I've heard you talking about 
A
making the world safer
    D                            
And about all the men you have to 
      G
kill
G                        A
And you speak so glibly about your 
civilization
    D                             
And how you have the moral higher 
G
ground
         G                         
While halfway around the world, 
    A                           D
your explosives smash the buildings
                          G
If you could only hear the sound

          Bm                 D
But maybe Jesus would sell land 
mines
         Em              D
And turn on his electric chair
      Bm                     D
Maybe Jesus would show no compassion
        Em                      
For his enemies in the lands way 
     A
over there
      G                         
Maybe Jesus would have flown the 
 A           D               
planes that killed the kids in 
       G
Vietnam
G               D
Who would Jesus bomb?

[Verse 3]
       D
Yes, I hear you shot with confidence
 A
As you praise the Lord
       D                           
And you talk about this God you 
    G
know so well
    D
You talk of armageddon
         A
And your final victory
            D                      G
When all the evil forces go to Hell
               G
Well, you best hope you've chosen 
wisely
       A
On the right side of the Lord
             D                     
And when you die your conscience it
   G
 is clear
            G                      
You'd best hope your atom bombs are
 A
 better than the sword
       D                          
At the time that your reckoning is 
G
here

              Bm              
I don't think Jesus would send 
 D
gunships into Bethlehem
   Em                            D
Or jets to raze the town of Timorese
              Bm                 D
I don't think Jesus would lend money
 to dictators
  Em             D
Or drive those SUV's
                  G                
And I don't think Jesus would ever 
     A
have dropped
         D          G
A single ounce of napalm
           G                D
So tell me, who would Jesus bomb?
