[Verse 1]
G
While digesting Reader's Digest
C
In the back of a dirty book store,
D
A plastic flag, with gum on the back,
G
Fell out on the floor.
G
Well, I picked it up and I ran outside
C
Slapped on my window shield,
D
And if I could see old Betsy Ross
G
I tell her how good I feel.
[Chorus]
C
But your flag decal won't get you
G
Into Heaven any more.
D
They're already overcrowded
G
From your dirty little war.
C
Now Jesus don't like killin'
G
No matter what the reason's for,
D
And your flag decal won't get you
G Bb C D
Into Heaven any more.
[Verse 2]
G
Well, I went to the bank this morning
C
And the cashier he said to me,
D
"If you join the Christmas club
G
We'll give you ten of them flags for free. "
G
Well, I didn't mess around a bit
C
I took her up on what he said.
D
And I stuck them stickers all over my car
G
And one on my wife's forehead.
[Chorus]
C
But, your flag decal won't get you
G
Into heaven anymore
D
There already overcrowded
G
From your dirty little war
C
Noe Jesus don't like the killin
G
No matter what the reasons for
D G Bb C D
Ang your flag decal won't get you into heaven anymore
[Verse 3]
G
Well, I got my window shield so filled
C
With flags I couldn't see.
D
So, I ran the car upside a curb
C
And right into a tree.
G
By the time they got a doctor down
C
I was already dead.
D
And I'll never understand why the man
G
Standing in the Pearly Gates said...
[Chorus]
C
But your flag decal won't get you
G
Into Heaven any more.
D
We're already overcrowded
G
From your dirty little war.
C
Now Jesus don't like killin'
G
No matter what the reason's for,
D
And your flag decal won't get you
G Bb C D
Into Heaven anymore.
