INTRO: A
VERSE 1:
A G I could be a soldier, go out there and fight to save this land A G Be a people's soldier, paramilitary gun in hand A G I won't be a soldier, I won't take no orders from no one A G Stuff their fuckin' armies, killing isn't my idea of fun
CHORUS:
E A E A And they wanna waste my life, they wanna waste my time E A G D A They wanna waste my life and they've stolen it away
VERSE 2:
A G I could be a hero, live and die for their important cause A G A united nation or an independent state with laws A G And rules and regulations that merely cause disturbances and wars A G And that's what I have got now all thanks to the freedom seeking hoards
CHORUS:
E A E A And they wanna waste my life, they wanna waste my time E A G D A They wanna waste my life and they've stolen it away
BRIDGE:
F# E F# E I'm not gonna be taken in, they said if I don't join I just can't win F# E F# G# I've heard that story many times before and every time I've thrown it out the door
BREAK: C# > D > D# > E A E A E A G D A
VERSE 3:
A G Still they come up to me, with a different name and same old face A G I can see the connection with another time and another place A G No they ain't blond haired or blue eyed but they think that they're the master race A G They're nothing but blind fascists, brought up to hate and given lives to waste
CHORUS:
E A E A And they wanna waste my life, they wanna waste my time E A G D A They wanna waste my life and they've stolen it away, what they wanna do
CHORUS:
E A E A They wanna waste my life, they wanna waste my time E A G D A They wanna waste my life and they've stolen it away
