[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
I [Am]got the call one summer night
He said you're on
tomorrow's flight
My mother cried my sister too
My father said I'm proud of [B]you
I can't [Am]believe [B]it's true
We're going after who?
And still I wish that I just [Am]knew
[B]What are we [Am]fighting for[Eb]
When the [Dm]price we [Am]pay [Dm]is en[C]dless war
[Dm]What are we figh[Am]ting for[Eb]
When [Dm]all we [Am]need i[Dm]s
[C]peace[Dm][Am]
Though I'm blind to what I see
They tell me there's an enemy
I know I gotta get outta here
Insanity is [Am]drawing near
[B]Can't take it [Am]any [B]more
I've knocked on heaven's door
No I'm not dying for this war
[Am]What are we fighting [Eb]for
When the [Dm]price we [Am]pay
[Dm]is e[C]ndless w[Dm]ar
What are [Am]we fight[C]ing [Am]for[Eb]
[Dm]When all we [Am]need is [Dm]peace[C]
[Dm]What are we [Am]fighting [Eb]for
Can't [Dm]we learn from wh[Am]at
[Dm]we've [C]done be[Am]fore
[Dm]What are [Am]we fighting f[Eb]or
[Dm]When no one ever wins, in [G]war[F#][F][E][G][F#][F][E][G][F#][F]

[Dm][Em][Am][Dm][Am]
A young man returns [Dm]from war
Where he [G]didn't know
What he was fighting [C]for
The [Am]streets remained the same
But people'd [Dm]changed
The [G]medals on his chest
Didn't [C]mean a thing
A [F]tear dropped from the corner of his [Em]eye
[E]Did he com[Am]e come[Dm][G][C][Am]
[Dm][G][C][F][Em][Am]
My grand[Am]pa died in Normandy
My brother is [Am]still in Vietnam
I know there's nothing good in war
I know 'cause I've [Am]been there [B]before
So what am I [Am]gonna [B]do
I know this war ain't through
And still I wish that I just knew
[Am]What are we fighting [Eb]for
When [Dm]the price we [Am]pay
[Dm]is e[C]ndless w[Am]ar
What are we fighting [Eb]for
When [Dm]all we [Am]need is [Dm]peace[C]
[Am]What are we fi[Dm]ghti[Am]ng for[Eb]
Can't we [Dm]learn form [Am]what
[Dm]we've [C]done before
[Dm]What are we [Am]fighting [Eb]for
When [Dm]no one ever w[Am]in s,[Eb][Dm][Am][Dm][C][Am][Dm][Am][C][Em][Eb]

[Dm]in w[C]ar[Dm][Am][Eb][Dm]
