Use capo on the third fret.

Em Em7 A Em You ask me why I'm weary, why I can't speak to you Em Em7 A Em You blame me for my silence, say it's time I changed and grew A Em A Em But the war's still going on, dear, and there's no end that I know C Em And I can't stand forever A B I can't say if we're ever gonna be free Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Don't let these shakes go on, it's time we had a break from it C Em It's time we had some leave

Em Em7 A Em You see me now a veteran of a thousand psychic wars Em Em7 A Em My energy is spent at last, and my armor is destroyed A Em A Em I have used up all my weapons, and I'm helpless and bereaved C Em Wounds are all I'm made of A B Did I hear you say that this is victory? Am Em Am Em Am Em Am Em Don't let these shakes go on, it's time we had a break from it C Em Send me to the rear
