Now I'm Learning to Love the War Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][Em][D][C][Em][D]
[G][Em]

[Verse 1]
[G]Try
not to think so much about
The truly staggering [D]amount of oil
that it takes to make [C]a rec[Em]ord
All [A]the shipping, the vinyl,
the cellophane lining
The [D]high gloss

[Verse 2]
The tape and the gear
[G]
Try not to become too consumed
With what's a criminal [D]volume of oil
that it takes to paint [C]a port[Em]rait
[A]The acrylic, the varnish
Aluminum tubes filled with [D]latex

[Verse 3]
The solvents and dye
[D]
[Em]Lets just call this what[C#dim] it is[D]
The [G]jealous side [B]of mankind's
death [Em]wish
When it's my time to [A]go
Gonna [D]leave behind things
that won't decompose
[G]

[Verse 4]
Try not to dwell so much upon
How it won't be so very [D]long from
now that they laugh at us for [Em]selling
A bunch [A]of 15 year olds made from dinosaur
bones singing "o[D]h yeah"
Again and again
Right up to the en[Em]d

[Verse 5]
Lets just [Em]call this [C#dim]what it is[D]
[G]The jealous side [B]of man
kind's death [Em]wish
When it's my time to [A]go
Gonna [D]leave behind things
that won't decom[G]pose

[Verse 6]
[G]I'll [Gaug]just ca[Em]ll this what it is[C#dim][D]
My [G]vanity gone [B]wild with my [Em]crisis
[D]One day[G] this all wil[Em]l[A]
[Unknown]
Now sure hope [D]they make
something useful out of me
