When They Found The Atomic Power

C                        F
In Alamogordo New Mexico just a few years ago

          G7                            C
While the nations of this world were at war

                            F
America's greatest men were working hard then

       G7                         C
On the things that had never been before


                                  G7
When the Lord held out His mighty hand

                                        C
So that others in this world might understand

                                  F
That wars could never be and this world it must be free

          G7                             C
When they found the mighty mighty Atomic Power


                            F
They were at Los Alamos Oak Ridge and old Paso

G7                       C
Working in a downpour of rain

                          F
In that zero hour seeking out some heavenly power

          G7                             C
While the Star Spangled Banner was being played


                                  G7
When the Lord held out His mighty hand

                                        C
So that others in this world might understand

                                  F
That wars could never be and this world it must be free

          G7                             C
When they found the mighty mighty Atomic Power


                                 F
Then a flash a rumbling roar out across the desert floor

         G7                          C
They had found the atomic power from above

                                         F
Then God with His mighty hand showed the world it could not stand

          G7                             C
When they found the mighty mighty Atomic Power
