The War Is Over Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Sil[G]ent[Em] Sol[Bm]diers
on a silver screen
[G]A F#m E A F#m
Framed in [Em]fantasies an[D]d[G]
dragged [D]in [Em]dream
[Am]Bm E7 A
Unpaid actors [D]of the [G]mystery
Bm [Am]E F#m E
The mad [D]director knows [Em]that
freedom will not [D]make you free
F#m E
[Em]And what's this got to d[D]o with me
[F]G D
I declare the war is [C]over
A E E A E C#m
It's [G]over, it's [D]over

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
Drums are drizzling on a
grain of [G]sand
Fading [Em]rhythms of [G]a fading l[Em]and[Am]
Prove your courage in the
[G]proud [Am]parade
Trust your [D]leaders where [Em]mistakes
are almost [D]never made
[Em]And they're afraid that [D]I'm [F]afraid

[Verse 3]
I'm [F]afraid the war is [C]over
It's [G]over, it's [D]over

[Verse 4]
[Bm]
Angry artists painting angry [G]signs
Use their [Em]vision just [D]to[G]
blind the [Em]blind[Am]
Poisoned players of a [G]grizzly [Am]game
One is [D]guilty and [Em]the other gets
the [D]point to [Em]blame
Pardon me if [D]I r[F]efrain

[Verse 5]
I [F]declare the war is [C]over
It's [G]over, it's [D]over

[Interlude 1]
[D][Em][Bm]

[Verse 6]
So do your [Bm]duty, boys,
and join with [G]pride
Serve your [Em]country in [Bm]her
[G]suicid[Em]e[Am]
Find the flags so you can
[G]wave [Am]goodbye
But just be[D]fore the end even
[Em]treason might be [D]worth a try
[Em]This country is too [D]young to [F]die

[Verse 7]
I [F]declare the war is [C]over
It's [G]over, it's [D]over

[Verse 8]
[Bm]
One-legged veterans veterans
will greet the dawn
And [G]they're whistling [Em]marches
as [G]they mow the [Em]lawn[Am]
And the [D]gargoyles only
[G]sit and gri[Am]eve
The gypsy [D]fortune teller [Em]told me
that we'd [D]been deceived
[Em]You only are what [D]you [F]believe

[Verse 9]
I [F]believe the war is [C]over
It's [G]over, it's [D]over
