Good Christian Soldier Kris Kristofferson
Intro F C7 F C7
F C7 F
Not so long ago in Oklahoma
C7 F F7
The son of an Okie preacher knelt to pray
F7 Bb F
He said Lord I wanna be a Christian soldier just like you
G7 C7 ( pause}
And fight to build a new and better day
F C7 F
Now many years and miles from Oklahoma
C7 F F7
That same young Okie boy still kneels to pray
F7 Bb F
But he don't pray to be no Christian soldier anymore
C7 F F7
He just prays to make it through another day
Bb F
Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun
Bb F
And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry
F7 Bb C7 F Dm
But we're playin' cards writin' home havin' lots of fun
Bb7 C7
Tellin' jokes and learnin' how to die
Solo 1st verse F C7 F C7 F F7 Bb F G7 C7 ( pause}
F C7 F
You know the things I've come to know seem so confusing
C7 F F7
It's gettin' hard to tell what's wrong from right
Bb F
I can't separate the winners from the losers anymore
C7 F F7
And I'm thinking of just givin' up the fight
Bb F
Cause it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun
Bb F
And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry
F7 Bb C7 F Dm
But we're playin' cards writin' home havin' lots of fun
Bb7 C7
Tellin' jokes and learnin' how to die
