  Our only contact was a form for the election

E5                     C#5     B5
These days I find that I don't listen

E5                        C#5       B5
These days I find that we're out of touch

E5                         C#5 B5
These days I find that I'm too busy

   E5                         C#5       B5
So why the attention, now you want my assistance

C             D        E  E5
What have you done for me?

G                       C       D
You've gone and got yourself in trouble

G                  C        D
Now you want me to help you out

E5                     C#5        B5
These days I find that I can't be bothered

E5                        C#5       B5
These days I find that it's all too much

E5                   C#5      B5
To pick up a gun and shoot a stranger

    E5                    C#5    B5
But I've got no choice so here I come

C   D  E   E5    N.C.
War ga-ames

    E5                                          A5
I'm up on the hills, playing little boy soldiers

  E5                          A5
Reconnaissance duty up at 5:30

E5                                   A5
Shoot, shoot, shoot and kill the natives

E5                                   A5
You're one of us and we love you for that

F#5
Think of honour, Queen and country

F#5
You're a blessed son of the British Empire

F#5
God's on our side and so is Washington

G5
Come out on the hills with the little boy soldiers

G5
Come up on the hills, playing little boy soldiers

G5                                           C5*
Come out on the hills, playing little boy soldiers

           C                
Come on outside - I'll sing you a lullaby

   Am                             C
Or tell a tale of how goodness prevailed

C
We ruled the world, we killed and robbed

    Am                                C*
The fucking lot - but we don't feel bad

N.C.   F5               C           Am    G
It was done beneath the flag of democracy

         F5          C  Am      G                   F
You'll believe and I do - yes I do, yes I do, yes I do

                E
Yes I do, yes I do - ooo-ooo-ooooo ooo-ooo-ooooo

D        D5* D5*
Haaaaa!

E5                     C#5        B5
These days I find that I can't be bothered

   E5                    C#5        B5
To argue with them, well what's the point?

          E5                  C#5       B5
Better to take your shots and drop down dead

          E5                 C#5      B5
Then they send you home in a pine overcoat

C         D           E  E5
With a letter to your mum

       E      B          A        E           A
Saying find enclosed one son, one medal and a note

   B      E
To say he won
