Verse 1
(B minor) (G major) (A major) (B minor) do
(G major) (A major) (G major) (A major) (D major)
(Dsus4) (D major) (Dsus4) (D major)
I'm just as patriotic as the next guy
I (Dsus4) (D major) love my country,
wanna look after my family
And (E minor) I understand that (A major)
freedom isn't always free (D major)
Now (G major) sometimes you have to (A major) sacrifice,
(G major) fight for what you (A major) be lieve in
And (G major) I believe in freedom, (A major) toleration,
peace, and (D major) liberty (Dsus4) (D major)
How about those who say you
have (G major) to go an (D major) d fight
Never (G major) (D major) send their own to (G major) battle
It's al (D major) ways someone else's sacrifice
That (E minor) makes (A major) the system go (D major)
And as long (G major) as there's
enough pover (A major) ty
There'll (G major) be volunteers for (A major) the military
While the ones (G major) who run (A major) the show
Sit back and watch their (D major) millions grow
Sac (G major) rifice the (A major) young to feed the (B minor) old
Sacrifice (G major) the (A major) hot to serve the (B minor) cold
(G major) Sacrifice the pat (A major) riotic for the gold
(B minor) Sacrifice (G major) the truth (A major)
for the story (D major) being told
(A major) Well, (E minor) I'm alright, (G major)
just looking through the eyes (A major)
Of (G major) my patriotic (A major) heart (D major) (A major)
Hey, (D major) I'm just as (G major) angry as the next (D major) guy
(G major) I (D major) don't wanna see suicide
(G major) bomber (D major) s over me
Or (G major) be breathing tox (E minor) ic
microfiber (A major) s in the hall (D major)
So they tell (G major) you to strike first
(A major) before the oth (G major) er guy can hurt (A major) you
What if the (G major) other guy
was never gon (A major) na strike at you (D major) at all? (A major)
But then (D major) it all gets mar
(G major) keted like a movie
(D major) Some (G major) great adven (D major) ture
across (G major) the world,
(D major) some documentary
An (G major) d compared (E minor) to wars in history
(A major) fought for real (D major) causes
Against (G major) slavery and tyranny (A major)
and extermin (G major) ation
How (A major) could there (G major) ever be
enough oil (A major) wells
to justify (D major) their losses?
Enough to sac (G major) rifice the
young (A major) to feed the old (B minor)
Sac (G major) rifice the hot (A major) to serve the cold (B minor)
Sac (G major) rifice the patri (A major) otic for the gold (B minor)
Sac (G major) rifice the truth (A major) for
the story (D major) being told
(B minor) Well, (G major) I'm all right just
looking through the eyes (A major)
of my (G major) pat (A major) riotic (D major) eyes (A major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
(A major) And I'm (D major) just as likely (G major) as the next guy (D major)
(G major) to drive the (D major) kids to school
(G major) or to heat (D major) my house with fuel
(G major) But it (E minor) makes for strange
rela (A major) tions with the world (D major)
To suck up to (G major) the countries
(A major) that want to (G major) sell it to us cheap
(A major) While their (G major) people hate us
and want to (A major) kill us in our (D major) sleep
And now there's no one
afraid (G major) to bomb civilians
(D major) (G major) From so (D major) high above the soil
(G major) that you can't (D major) even see the oil (G major)
or (E minor) alone in
Marketplaces with (A major) a bomb
strapped on (D major) their chests
One side (G major) kills the oth (A major) er in
return (G major) for killing them
(A major) If you look (G major) on down the (A major) road,
then time (G major) and time again
(A major) All you do (G major) is sacrifice the
(A major) future for the (D major) past
And sacri (G major) fice the young (A major)
to feed the old (B minor)
Sac (G major) rifice the hot (A major) to serve the cold (B minor)
Sacri (G major) fice the pat (A major) riotic for the gold (B minor)
Sac (G major) rifice the truth (A major) for the story (D major) being told
(B minor) Well, I'm alright (G major) just
looking through the (A major) eyes
Of my (G major) pat (A major) riotic (D major) heart you
