Jake Bugg – Universal Soldier (Guitar)

G   (320022)
G/F#(200033)

     C           D             G   G/F#  Em
He's five feet two, and he's six feet four,

       C            D              G   G/F#  Em
He is all of thirty-one, and he's only seventeen.

         C                Am      D
Been a soldier for thousand years.

        C           D         G   G/F#    Em
He's a Catholic, a Hindu, an atheist, a Jain, 

  C               D             G
A Buddhist and a Baptist and a Jew. 

       C                  D            G       G/F#       Em
And he knows, he shouldn't kill, and he knows he always will.

         C                    Am        D
Kill for me my friend and and me for you.

          C            D            G      G/F#     Em
And he's fighting for Canada, he's fighting for France.

      C               D   G
He's fighting for the U.S.A. 

         C                D                   G      G/F#    Em
And he's fighting for the Russians, and he's fighting for Japan,

        C               Am               D
And he thinks we put an end to war this way.

         C               D            G        G/F#      Em
And he's fighting for democracy, he's fighting for the Reds.

   C                  D         G
He says it's for the peace of all.

         C               D             G         G/F#       Em 
He's the one who must decide, who's to live and who's to die,

        C             Am              D
And he never sees the writing on the wall.

        C                  D                 G      G/F#    Em
But without him, how would Hitler have condemned him at Dachau,

        C           D                 G
Without him Caesar would have stood alone.

          C                D         G      G/F#     Em
He's the one who gives his body as a weapon of the war,

        C                  Am             D
and without him all this killing can't go on. 

          C             D            G     G/F#     Em
He's the universal soldier and he really is to blame,

       C              D            G
His orders come from far away, no more.

                 C                  D             
They come from here and there, and you and me, 

     G           G/F#   Em
And brothers, can't you see, 

         C                           D
This is not the way we put an end to war.
