Intro

G G Em7 D 2x

Em Dsus Em Dsus
A king of foreign country heard some rumours in the night
Em Dsus D Dsus
That some other evil king is now preparing for a fight
Em Dsus
He assembles all his generals
Em Dsus
And asks them what to do
Em Dsus D G
And with sternness in their eyes they look at him and say it's true

D G
We're in the war; oh we're in the war
D G
We're in the war; oh we're in the war

Em Dsus Em Dsus
They're preparing thousand battleships to sail across the sea
Em Dsus D Dsus
And the general ahead of them are happy as can be
Em Dsus Em Dsus
When they reach the other shore they get a warm embrace
Em Dsus D G
But the generals feel threatened so they shoot them in the face

D G
In the war oh we're in the war
D G
We're in the war oh we're in the war

G D G
In the war, in the war, in the war

Em Dsus Em Dsus
And the fairies and the elves are just trying to survive
Em Dsus D Dsus
And the lions and the elephants are running for their lives
Em Dsus Em Dsus
And the generals are firing seven hundred cannon balls
Em Dsus D G
But no one understands what all this is for

D G
In the war oh we're in the war
D G
We're in the war oh we're in the war

We're in the war
D G G Em7 D
Oh, we're in the war

Em Dsus Em Dsus
And now a thousand battle ships are landing on the shore
Em Dsus D Dsus
And one hundred thousand soldiers don't know what they're looking for
Em Dsus Em Dsus
For they cannot find their enemies, no weapons and no war
Em Dsus
So they start to shoot each other
D G
'Cause that's what they were trained for

D G
In the war oh we're in the war
D G
We're in the war oh we're in the war
