Start Jamming...
We sent them all across [E] the ocean.
[C#m] Many lives
[G#m] were [A] taken, but I [E] didn't cry.
[G#m] I didn't [C#m] know them, [A]
and I [E] just looked [G#] on with [C#m] no expression.
[F#m] [D#m] [C#m]
[G#m] [A]
[F#m]
[E] [D#m] [C#m] I swam with [E] one to home, our [C#m] friends and family.
[G#m] We [A] used to know, they [E] are all gone now.
[G#m] They [C#m] are now gone, [A] and [E] for what, [G#] I cannot [C#m] tell.
[A] But put down your [E] banners and flag, [G#m] this war you've made
[C#m] won't last.
[E]
[A] And your country just [E] lands on a map, they're [G#m] thrown out, they [A] don't last long.
[E]
[B]
[C#m]
[G#m] [B]
[E] Paper cities burning, [B] the ice it felt like rain.
[C#m] But when the fire was over, [B] oh everything had changed.
[E] And people come together,
[C#] [B] reminds us we're the same.
But
[C#m]
[B]
[A] put down your [E] banners and flag, [G#m] this war you've made
[C#m] won't last.
[A] And your country just [E] lands on a map,
[G#m] they're thrown out, they [A] don't last.
