"In God's Country" is a song by Irish rock band U2. It is the seventh track from their 1987 album The Joshua Tree and was released as the album's fourth single in November 1987 in North America only.
"In God's Country" was a difficult song for the band to record, which they put down to not being trained musicians, and they do not speak overly highly of it. During The Joshua Tree sessions, they knew it was not going be one of their best songs but they needed more up-tempo songs. It was developed out of Bono's frustration at trying to get "...a bit of Rock'n'Roll out of [U2 guitarist], The Edge". Bono tried to inspire The Edge by teasing and playing on his competitive instincts by claiming to be a better guitarist. Of the song, Bono says "[My] lyric was really good, the tune is pretty good, and the hook is pretty average - thanks to The Edge". Played in the key of D, the verses of the studio version alternates between D and A minor chords. The first chorus repeats a C-G-D-C-G-D chord progression while the second chorus repeats a Em-G-D-Em-G-D progression.
