Holy War Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]I've spent twenty years
[G]learning to live
In a world that takes back all that it gives
But I [Am]do not want a war
'Cause I'm not in for killing [Em]another man

[Verse 2]
Defending
my holy land
As if there's a god who would
understand

[Verse 3]
Feeding the promised land [C]With
your blood by my own hand
At Allah's own command
At Allah's [D]own command

[Verse 4]
[D][Bb]
[Em]I've spent twenty years learning to [G]live
In a [Am]world that takes [Em]back all that it gives
But [C]I do not want a [D]war

[Verse 5]
[D]
I don't know [Em]what's going on
In [G]the scenes behind
I [Am]worry about it [Em]some of the time
And I [C]hope there's not a [D]war

[Verse 6]
[D]
'Cause I'm not [Em]in fo[G]r ki[C]lling
[D]another [Em]man[G]
Defend[C]ing my [D]holy land
As [Em]if there's a go[G]d who
would [C]un der[D]stand

[Verse 7]
[D]
And I would [Em]walk across highways
To [G]find my fate
If that [Am]might settle your [Em]crude debate
[C]But I do not want a [D]war

[Verse 8]
'Cause [D]I'm not [Em]in fo[G]r ki[C]lling
[D]another [Em]man[G]
Defend[C]ing my [D]holy land
As [Em]if there's a go[G]d who
would [C]understand
[D][C][Am]

[Verse 9]
[Em]Feeding the [Am]promised [C]land[Am]
[Em]With your blood by my
[C]own han[Am]d[Em]
At al[C]lah's own command
At [D]allah's own command

[Verse 10]
I came [Em]up from the desert
and [G]here I will die
[Am]Tooth for tooth an[Em]d
an eye for an eye
Though I [C]didn't want a [D]war

[Verse 11]
[D]
I went [Em]in fo[G]r ki[C]lling
[D]another [Em]man[G]
Defend[C]ing my [D]holy land
As [Em]if there's a go[G]d who
would un[C]derstand[D]
As [Em]if there's a go[G]d who
would un[C]der[D]stand
I went [Em]in fo[G]r ki[C]lling
[D]another [Em]man[G]
Defend[C]ing my [D]holy land
As [Em]if there's a go[G]d who
would [C]un der[D]stand
As [Em]if there's a go[G]d who
would un[C]derstand
[D]Oh [Em]yeah.[G]..[C][D]
