Joseph Arthur – (I Donated Myself to the) Mexican Army I like this song a lot and it’s a breeze to play. Have fun with it, I saw him play it on video so I thought I would tab this puppy out. Enjoy! Standard, no Capo Intro: Am
  Am                            Dm
I donated myself to the mexican  army

        Am                                  Dm
We were ten thousand guns shooting into the  night

        Am                              Dm
Turning screams into sand and sand into  blood

    Am                               Dm
And murdering darkness with fire and  light

C        G                C          G
 I don't know where we're going from here

C        G         Am
I'm just following orders

C        G              C           G
 I don't know how we'll conquer the king

C          G      Am
This ain't my revolution

Am                                        Dm
Out in the field there's no such thing as  mercy

   Am                                     Dm
We bloom through the night into flowers of  death

   Am                             Dm
"I don't believe anything that I've  said"

      Am                              Dm
Jesus Christ was heard saying under his  breath

C        G                C          G
 I don't know where we're going from here

C        G         Am
I'm just following orders

C        G              C           G
 I don't know how we'll conquer the king

C          G      Am
This ain't my revolution

  Am                            Dm
I donated myself to the mexican  army

  Am                            Dm
I gave all my love to a Mexican  whore

  Am                                 Dm
I gave her my dreams and I gave her my money

  Am                          Dm
I buried my family   under her floor

C        G                C          G
 I don't know where we're going from here

C        G         Am
I'm just following orders

C        G              C           G
 I don't know how we'll conquer the king

C          G      Am
This ain't my revolution
