Steppenwolf – Draft Resister (Guitar)

Dm7
He was talkin' 'bout the army

Dm7
While he passed his pipe around

Dm7
An American deserter

Dm7
Who found peace on Swedish ground

Dm7
He had joined to seek adventure

Dm7
And to prove himself a man

Dm7
But they tried to crush his spirit

Dm7
'Til his conscience ruined their plans

Db                C
And we thought of those who suffer

Db              C
For the sake of honesty

Db              C
All those who refuse to follow

Db            C
Traitors to humanity

Dm7
Here's to all the draft resisters

Dm7
Who will fight for sanity

Dm7
When they march them off to prison

Dm7
In this land of liberty

Db                  C
Heed the threat and awesome power

Db               C
Of the mighty Pentagon

Db               C
Which is wasting precious millions

Db             C
On the toys of Washington

Dm7
Don't forget the Draft Resisters

Dm7
And their silent, lonely plea

Dm7
When they march 'em off to prison

Dm7
They will go for you and me

Db                  C
Shame, disgrace and all dishonor

Db              C
Wrongly placed upon their heads

Db                C
Will not rob them of the courage

Db                C
Which betrays the innocent
