[Verse 1]
E D We're at war all the papers say Bm E We will win I read today D We are strong It wasn't us Bm E We are right Who started this? D Leave your work I just left school Bm E Leave your home I am no fool D Take up arms It left me strong Bm E Sound alarms The school bell rings
[Chorus]

E D Join up here I wave goodbye Bm E We need you Oh, my breast sighs D Have no fear I must try Bm E God will be with braver men D Take the vow I know its right Bm E Praise the flag The good fight D We're at war I'm on my way Bm E We will win Why do I pray?

[Verse 3]
E D I wait here in this hole Bm E Playing poker with my soul D I hold the rifle close to me Bm E It lights the way to keep me free D If I die in a combat zone Bm E Box me up and ship me home D If I die and still come home Bm E Lay me where the rose is sown
