guitar chords lyrics
Not entirely happy with this but let me know what you think :) - Hayley x
A G
Look alive
Pick a side
Draw a line
In the sand
You're just the band
D C
They treat us like we're extras in an epic
D C
They treat us like we're mud on their boots
Bb C
They leave us on the stretchers when the credits roll
D C
Retreating safely to institutes
D C
Where dinner party military forces
D C
Toast themselves with the blood of us all
Bb C
Smashing regimes between courses
D C
Chanting education, education and war
A G
We're gonna need a lot more cannons
A G
We're gonna need a lot more cannons
A D G
If you wanna be home by Christmas
A D G
If we're gonna be home by Christmas
F
I know there is another way
C
If you want to see their face again
Am
And I know they feel the same way
Em
over there

D C
They're making all the difficult decisions
D C
Put politicians and children first
Bb C
Followed by their personal physicians who say
D C
You will be happy if you expect the worst
D C
Armed with paper straws and a bible
D
Lamps are going out across
C
department stores
Bb
You will be issued with a rifle
C
on arrival chaps
D C
For education, education and war
A G
We're gonna need a lot more cannons
A G
We're gonna need a lot more cannons
A D G
If you wanna be home by Christmas
A D G
If we're gonna be home by Christmas
F
I know there is another way
C
If you want to see their face again
Am
And I know they feel the same way
Em
over there
F
I know there is another way
C
If you want to see their face again
Am
And I know they feel the same way
Em
over there

Show us the way to go
Hell or heaven help us
Show us the way to go
Save our souls
Show us the way back home
Save our souls
Show us the way to go
