[B] [Em] This is a song that came up [G] on me one night when the [Am] news said had been telling me better
one more war and one more fight and I sighed but then I thought about my [Am] friends and I
wrote this declaration just [D] in case the world and [Em] our guns we shot [G] them in the face we said
oh [Am] we didn't need no bullets cause we rely on [D] some words instead [Em] kill someone in argument
[G] out with them with our brains [Am] and we kill ourselves laughing [C] at the funny [D] things we say
[Em]
we [G] had them say for special times [Am] when the crew would call a shakedown we break [D] down a party
[Em] land mine women that's so [G] sexy they explode us with their looks are we blowing up some [C] speakers
jumping around [Dm] color grass your family sounds [G] we launched a trip in cross the silence that
[D] emissions at the break of dawn [Em] yawn and smile say what [G] direction shall we take somewhere where [C] it
warm and wet at least better route we'd always taken our weapons [Em] were our instruments made from
a timber [C] and steel we [Am] never yielded to [Em] conformity but stood like kings [G] in a chariot [D] that's riding on a record wheel

now we're feeling [D] extra high [Bm] and we sneak into a car park [G] with the skaties on our back
[Am] and we're flying down to level [C] shall we want the attack now on the [Em] attack at battles they [G] happen
in these last songs [Am] see we'd ride a pipe with music choosing one [D] the rhythm [Em] world battle at
these [G] shakedowns and we battle at these gigs we do [Am] battle in our vehicles made to speed life to
[Em] defeat and our allies crew wherever we would [Am] roam see whenever we together any [Bm] stranger feel [D] at home
[Em] in a way we are an army but [G] this army not this drug no [Am] instead we're doing simple things good loving
[D] finding running mark [Em] this be a [G] declaration written about my friends [C] it's engraved into this song so
they know i'm [D] not forgetting them [Em] see maybe if the world [F#] contained more people like these
[Am] then the news would not be telling me about all that warfare endlessly our weapons were [Em] our
