Verse 1:
Dm F This is a song that came upon me one night Dm When the news it had been telling me F G About one more war and one more fight Dm And 'aeh' I sighed but then F I thought about my friends Dm Then I wrote this declaration F G Just in case the world end
Verse 2:
Our guns
Dm F We shot them in the things we said Dm Ah we didn't need no bullets F G Cos we rely on some words instead Dm Kill someone in argument F Outwit them with our brains Dm And we'd kill ourselves laughing F G At the funny things we'd say
Verse 3:
And bombs
Dm F We had them saved for special times Dm When the crew would call a shakedown F G We break down a party landmine Dm Women that so sexy F They explode us with their looks Dm Ah we blowing up some speakers F G Jumping round till the ground shook
Verse 4:
And missiles
Dm F They were the roadtrips that we launched Dm T-t-tripping across this island F G Starting missions at the break of dawn Dm Yawn and smile say F What direction shall we take? Dm Somewhere where it warm and wet F G This be the route we'd always take and
Chorus:
Dm Dm Our weapons were our instruments F G F Made from timber and steel Dm We never yielded to conformity Dm But stood like kings F In a chariot that's riding on a G Record wheel e|--6-7-3---5-7-6-7-6-7-----6-7-3---5--------7-6-7-6-7-----6-7-3---5| B|--------5-----------------------5------------------------------5--| G|------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------------------------------------------------| E|------------------------------------------------------------------| e|--7-6-7-6-7-----6-7-3---5------6-7-3---5-7-6-7-8-7-----6-7-3---5--| B|----------------------5--------------5-----------------------5----| G|------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------------------------------------------------| E|------------------------------------------------------------------| e|--7-6-7-6-7-----6-7-3---5-----7-6-7-6-7-----6-7-3---5-------------| B|----------------------5---------------------------5---------------| G|------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------------------------------------------------| E|------------------------------------------------------------------|

Verse 5:
Dm And our airforce flying F When the frisbee in the sky Dm Have a session while we're smoking F G Now we're feeling extra high Dm And we'd sneak into a carpark F With the skaties on our back Dm And we're flying down the levels howling F G On the attack now on the attack
Verse 6:
And battles
Dm F They happened in these dancehalls Dm See we'd rather fight with music F G Choosing one the rhythm war Dm Battle at these shakedowns F And we battle at these gigs Dm We do battle in our bedrooms F G Made some sweet love to the beat
Bridge:
Dm Then our allies grew F Wherever we would roam Dm See whenever we're together F G Any stranger feel at home Dm In a way we are an army F But this army not destruct Dm No instead we're doing simple things F G Good loving find it run amuck
Verse 7:
Dm This be a declaration F Written about my friends Dm It's engraved into this song F G So they know I'm not forgetting them Dm See maybe if the world contained F More people like these Dm Then the news would not be telling me F G About all that warfare endlessly and
