[E] [B]
He sat in that long line of arbor chairs
And the sergeant asked him,
Son, would you [F#] like to keep your hair?
He [G#m] said, yes sir, as [B] he heard
Those [E] clippers buzz and hum
And the sergeant [B] said,
Well, hold out [F#] your hands
Because here it [B] comes
[E] Sympathize
Do [B] or die
So
[F#] gung ho to go and pay [B] the price
[E] Ears to leathernecks
Devil [G#m] dogs and jar heads
And Paris Island in July [B] Sympathize
I sleep in my bed instead of a foxhole
I've never heard my boss tell me
[F#] From rock and roll
[G#m] Ain't no bullet holes [B] in the side of [E] my SUV
The [B] cost of kid next door [F#] just shipped out [B] overseas
[E] Sympathize
Do [B] or die
[F#] So gung ho to go and pay [B] the price
[E] Ears to leathernecks
Devil [G#m] dogs and jar heads
[G#] And [C#m] Paris Island in July [B] Sympathize
[F#] For the few that wear the dress blues
[G#m] With their hair cut high and tight
Who [C#m] are proud to be the first ones [F#] in the fight
[E] Sympathize
[B]
[F#]
[B] [E] Sympathize
Do [B] or die
[C#] [F#] So gung ho to go and [B] pay the price
[E] Ears to leathernecks
Devil dogs and jar heads
[G#] And [C#m] Paris Island in [E] July
[G#m] Never leave a [F#] man behind
Hum [C#m] a ring, hum [E] a ring for life
[B] Sympathize
