Bob Dylan (born Robert Allen Zimmerman on May 24, 1941 in Duluth, Minnesota, United States) is an American musician, poet and artist whose position in popular culture is unique.
Dylan started his musical odyssey in 1959 when he began playing in Dinkytown, Minneapolis while attending the University of Minnesota. Shortly after starting to play he changed his stage name to Bob Dylan, after being influenced by the poetry of Dylan Thomas before legally changing his name in 1962.

ADC#m Oh my name it ain't nothin' EA My age it means less EA The country I come from DA Is called the Midwest EA I's taught and brought up there DA The laws to abide DC#m And that the land that I live in EA Has God on its side
ADC#m Oh the history books tell it EA They tell it so well EA The cavalries charged DA The Indians fell EA The cavalries charged DA The Indians died DC#m Oh the country was young EA With God on its side
ADC#m The Spanish-American EA War had its day EA And the Civil War too DA Was soon laid away EA And the names of the heroes DA I's made to memorize DC#m With guns in their hands EA And God on their side
ADC#m The First World War, boys EA It came and it went EA The reason for fighting DA I never did get EA But I learned to accept it DA Accept it with pride DC#m For you don't count the dead EA When God's on your side
ADC#m The Second World War EA Came to an end EA We forgave the Germans DA And then we were friends EA Though they murdered six million DA In the ovens they fried DC#m The Germans now too have EA God on their side
ADC#m I've learned to hate the Russians EA All through my whole life EA If another war comes DA It's them we must fight EA To hate them and fear them DA To run and to hide DC#m And accept it all bravely EA With God on my side
ADC#m But now we got weapons EA Of chemical dust EA If fire them we're forced to DA Then fire them we must EA One push of the button DA And a shot the world wide DC#m And you never ask questions EA When God's on your side
ADC#m Through many dark hours EA I've been thinkin' about this EA That Jesus Christ DA Was betrayed by a kiss EA But I can't think for you DA You'll have to decide DC#m Whether Judas Iscariot EA Had God on his side
ADC#m So now as I'm leavin' EA I'm weary as Hell EA The confusion I'm feelin' DA Ain't no tongue can tell EA The words fill my head DA And then fall to the floor DC#m That if God's on our side EA He'll stop the next war
