[Intro]
D5
[Verse 1]
Dm C It's up to you not to heed the call-up Dm C You must not act the way you were brought up Dm C Who knows the reasons why you have grown up? Dm Who knows the plans or why they were drawn up? Dm It's up to you not to heed the call-up C I don't wanna die!
[Chorus]
Dm It's up to you not to hear the call-up C I don't wanna kill! Dm C Dm For he who will die Dm C Dm Is he who will kill
[Verse 2]
Dm C Dm Maybe I wanna see the wheatfields Dm C Dm Over Kiev and down to the sea
[Chorus]
Dm It's up to you not to hear the call-up C I don't wanna die! Dm It's up to you not to hear the call-up C I don't wanna kill!
[Verse 3]
Dm C All the young people down the ages Dm C They gladly marched off to die Dm C Dm Proud city fathers used to watch them Dm C Dm Tears in their eyes
[Chorus]
Dm It's up to you not to hear the call-up C I don't wanna die! Dm It's up to you not to hear the call-up C Dm I don't wanna kill! Dm C Dm For he who will die Dm C Dm Is he who will kill
[Interlude]

Dm C There is a rose that I want to live for Dm C Although, God knows, I may not have met her Dm C There is a dance an' I should be with her Dm C There is a town - unlike any other
[Verse 5]
Dm It's up to you not to hear the call-up Dm 'N' you must not act the way you were brought up Dm Who give you work an' why should you do it? Dm At fifty five minutes past eleven Dm There is a rose..
