Main riff: 


C                 Csus 
Peter said to Paul 
           C        Csus      C    Csus  C  Csus  
“you know all those words we wrote 
              C           Csus 
Are just the rules of the game 
         C             Csus      C  Csus  C Csus 
and the rules are the first to go" 
        Am                       F                   C  Csus  C  Csus 
But now talkin' to God is Laurel beggin' Hardy for a gun 
        Am                     F                      C  Csus  C  Csus 
I gotta girl in the war, man I wonder what it is we done 

C                 Csus 
Paul said to Peter 
           C        Csus      C    Csus   C  Csus 
"You gotta rock yourself a little harder; 
            C          Csus2 
Pretend the dove from above 
        C                 Csus      C  Csus  C  Csus 
Is a dragon and your feet are on fire" 
            Am                         F                   C Csus  C Csus  
And I got a girl in the war, Paul the only thing I know to do 

        Am                    F                      C Csus  C  Csus 
Is turn up the music and pray that she makes it through 

C                           Csus 
Because the keys to the kingdom  
    C         Csus      C    Csus  C  Csus 
Got locked inside the kingdom 
          C                  Csus 
And the angels fly around in there,  
       C         Csus      C  Csus  C  Csus 
But we can't see them 
            Am                      F                           C  Csus  C  Csus 
And I gotta girl in the war, Paul I know that they can hear me yell 
        Am                     F                      C  Csus  C  Csus 
If they can't find a way to help her, they can go to Hell 
        Am                     F                      C  Csus  C  Csus 
If they can't find a way to help her, they can go to Hell
