_ _ _ [B] I'm just an [F#m] American [Bm] boy _ _ _ [D] raised [A] on [D] MTV
_ _ [E] I've seen [Bm] all the kids [F#m] in the soda pop [Bm] bands but none [D] of them look like [Bm] me
_ _ So I [F#m] started looking [Bm] around _ for a [A] light out of the dim
The [Em] first [D] thing I heard that [F#m] made sense [Bm] was the word of Muhammad [F#m] peace be [Bm] upon him
_ [D] I shout and do, _
[A] la ilaha _ [E] _ ilalah
[G] There's no [F#m] god but God [Bm] if my daddy could see me now
_ _ _ [D] _ [A] Chains around [D] my feet, _ [Em] you don't [F#] understand
Sometimes [B] a man's got to fight [Bm] for what he believes
_ And I believe God is great, _ _ [D] all [A] praise due [D] to him
_ [E] And if [Bm] I should die, [F#m] I'd rise up to the sky just like [F#m] Jesus peace [Bm] be upon him
[D] I shout and do, [A] la ilaha [Em] ilalah

[D] _ _ _ _ [Bm] he came to fight the jihad
[D] And our hearts were pure and strong
[Em] And death [Bm] built the air we all offered a present prepared for our _ martyrdom
_ But Allah has some other plan, [D] some secret not _ revealed
[Em] Now they're [Bm] dragging me back [F#m] with my head [Bm] in the sand to the land [F#m] of the [Bm] infidel
_ I [D] shout and do, [A] _
la ilaha [E] ilalah _ _
[G] _ _ [A] I [D] shout and [A] do, la ilaha _ [Em] _ ilalah _

[G] _ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[A] Those who believe [Em] follow their _ [E] Lord
[G] Allah [A] _ presents [D] _ people like [A] him
So [F#] when you meet the infidels, [G] strike the neck until [E] _ _ you _ have killed them _ _ _ _ _
_ [C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
