D                              Em9
Who's your brother, who's your sister
D
You just walked passed him
            Em9
I think you missed her
         A
As we're all migrating to the place
          D
Where our father lives
          Bm                        Asus      A7
'Cause we married in to a family of immigrants
 
 
G        Gm                D            E7
My first allegiance is not to a flag, a country, or a man
G        Gm                D            E7
My first allegiance is not to democracy or blood
G         A               D
It's to a king & a kingdom
 
 
There are two great lies that i've heard:
The day you eat of the fruit of that tree, you will not surely die
And that Jesus Christ was a white, middle-class republican
And if you wanna be saved you have to learn to be like Him
 
 
    D                      E7
But nothing unifies like a common enemy
          F
And we've got one, sure as hell
              G
But he may be living in your house
          A
He may be raising up your kids
          Bb7
He may be sleeping with your wife
       C7                       D
Oh no, he may not look like you think
