  D                     A7                D  
  Not so long ago in Oklahoma  
  A                                                                      D  
The  son of an Oakie preacher knelt to  pray  
  C       D7  G                                                       D  
  He  said  Lord I want to be a Christian  soldier just like you  
          E7                                                     A7  
And  fight to build a new and better  day.  
    D                                      A7                        D  
  Now many years and  miles from Okla homa  
           A                                                                    D       C  
That  same young Oakie boy still kneels to  pray     
  D7    G                                                           D  
  But  he don't pray to be no Christian  soldier anymore  
                E7                            A7                     D  
He just  prays to make it  thru another  day.  
   D          C         D7  G  
  Cause  Lord  it's  hard to be a Christian soldier  
   D                                                 G                                                                   D  
  when you tote a gun and it  hurts to have to watch a grown man  cry.  

  C      D7       G                         A7                        D  
  But  were  playing cards,  writing home,  having lots of fun,  
  G                                                             D  
  Telling jokes and learnin' how to  die.  
  D                                             A7                             D  
  The things I've come to  know seem so con fusin.  
        A                                                                       D  
It's  getting hard to tell what's wrong from  right.  
  C D7       G                                                        D  
  I  can' t  separate the winners from the  losers anymore  
         E7                                  A7                       D  
and  I'm thinking off just  giving up the  fight.  
  D            C       D7   G  
  Cause  Lord  it's  hard to be a Christian soldier  
  D                                                 G                                                                    D  
  when you tote a gun and it  hurts to have to watch a grown man  cry.  
  C        D7     G                         A7                       D  
  But  were  playing cards,  writing home,  having lots of fun,  
  G                                                          D  
  Turning on and learnin' how to  die.
