Em        C
Are you a man of peace

G           D
Or a man of holy war?

Em       C
Too many sides to you

      G             D
Don't know which anymore

Em      C
So many full of life

    G                D
But also filled with pain

Em              C
Don't know just how many

     G                D
Will live to breathe again

Em            C
A life that's made to breathe

    G            D
Destruction or defense

Em            C
A mind that's vain corruption

G             D
Bad or good intent

Em        C
A wolf in sheep's clothing

   G             D
Or saintly or sinner

Em           C
Or some that would believe

  G           D
A holy war winner

Em            C
They fire off many shots

    G            D
And many parting blows

Em              C
Their actions beyond a reasoning

G              D
Only God would know

Em        C
And as he lies in heaven

   G              D
Or it could be in hell

Em          C
I feel he's somewhere here

   G              D
Or looking from below

            Am            C    D
But I don't know, I don't know
[Chorus]
Em
Please tell me now what life is

C                       G       D
Please tell me now what love is

Em
Well, tell me now what war is

Am                  C       D
Again, tell me what life is
[Verse 2]
Em            C             G             D
More pain and misery in the history of mankind

Em           C                   G                 D
Sometimes it seems more like the blind leading the blind

Em         C              G                 D
It brings upon us more of famine, death and war

Em         C            G             D
You know religion has a lot to answer for
[Chorus 2]
Em
Please tell me now what life is

C                       G       D
Please tell me now what love is

Em
Well, tell me now what war is

Am                  C       D
Again, tell me what life is
[Verse 3]
Em          C                  G             D
And as they search to find the bodies in the sand

Em            C              G                    D
They find its ashes that are scattered across the land

Em         C               G              D
And as the spirits seem to whistle on the wind

Em        C                G            D
A shot is fired somewhere another war begins

Em        C                 G                   D
And all because of it you'd think that we would learn

Em            C              G          D
But still the body count the city fires burn

Em                C             G            D
Somewhere there's someone dying in a foreign land

Em            C                  G         D
Meanwhile the world is crying stupidity of man

        Am
Tell me why?

        C
Tell me why?
[Chorus 3]
Em
Please tell me now what life is

C                       G       D
Please tell me now what love is

Em
Well, tell me now what war is

Am                  C       D
Again, tell me what life is

Em
Please tell me now what life is

C                       G       D
Please tell me now what love is

Em
Well, tell me now what war is

Am                  C       D
Again, tell me what life is

[Coda]
Em          C
He gave his life for us

   G             D
He fell upon the cross

Em         C
To die for all of those

    G               D
Who never mourn his loss

Em        C
It wasn't meant for us

   G              D
To feel the pain again

        Am
Tell me why?

        C    D Em
Tell me why?
