Intro: Em G Em G D/F# (2x)  

   "What we've got here is failure to communicate.  
   Some men you just can't reach...  
   So, you get what we had here last week  
   Which is the way he wants it!  
   Well, he gets it!  
   N' I don't like it anymore than you, men."  

    Em  
   Look at your young men fighting  

     G  
   Look at your women crying  

    Em  
   Look at your young men dying  

       G                      D/F#      
   The way they've always done before

   (Em G Em G D/F#)  

    Em  
   Look at the hate we're breeding  

     G  
   Look at the fear we're feeding  

    Em  
   Look at the lives we're leading  

       G                    D/F#   A B/A C/A D/A  
   The way we've always done before  

                    Em (or E5)  
   My hands are tied  

        G (or G5...)  
   The billions shift from side to side  

  D/F#      Em  
   And the wars go on with brainwashed pride  

            G                   D/F#  
   For the love of God and our human rights  

       Em  
   And all these things are swept aside  

        G  
   By bloody hands time can't deny  

   D/F#      Em  
   And are washed away by your genocide  

        G                   D/F#               A B/A C/A D/A     
   And history hides the lies of our civil wars  
   
   (Em G Em G D/F# (2x)
                 
                G  
   D'you wear a black amrband  

              Bm  
   When they shot the man  

              Em  
   Who said "Peace could last forever"  

              G  
   And in my first memories  

              Bm7  
   They shot Kennedy  

     Em                     C           D  
   And I went numb when I learned to see  

         G                 Bm  
   So I never fell for Vietnam  

               Em  
   We got the wall of D.C. to remind us all  

             G  
   That you can't trust freedom  

          Bm7  
   When it's not in your hands  

          Em  
   When everybody's fighting  

               C       D  
   For their promised land  

      G         Bm                Em (or G5 B5 E5...) 
   And I don't need your civil war  

  G                Bm7                   Em C D  
   It feeds the rich while buries the poor  

    G          Bm  
   Your power hungry sellin' soldiers  

        Em  
   In a human grocery store  
   Ain't that fresh  

  G               Bm          Em C D G    
   I don't need your civil war  

    (G Bm7 Em G Bm7 Em C D)2x
    
   Em  
   Look at the shoes you're filling  

     G  
   Look at the blood we're spilling  

    Em  
   Look at the world we're killing  

       G                  D/F#  
   The way we've always done before  

    Em  
   Look in the doubt we've wallowed  

     G  
   Look at the leaders we've followed  

    Em  
   Look at the lies we've swallowed  

        G                D/F#      A B/A C/A D/A  
   And I don't want to hear no more  

                   Em  
   My hands are tied  

       G  
   For all I've seen has changed my mind  

       D/F#       Em  
   But still the wars go on as the years go by  

            G               D/F#  
   Wuth no love of God or human rights  

          Em  
   'Cause all these dreams are swept aside  

        G                         D/F#  
   By bloody hands of the hypnotized  

         Em  
   Who carry the cross of homicide  

         G                   D/F#               A B/A C/A D/A     
   And history bears the scars of our civil wars  
   
   (Em G Em G D/F#(2x)
  
   (A  B/A  C/A  D/A  F/A  C/A)  
   "We practice selective annihilation of mayors  
   And government officials  
   For example to create a vacuum  
   Then we fill that vacuum  
   As popular war advances.  
   Peace is closer."  

  G            Bm             Em  
   I don't need your civil war  

  G                    Bm7               Em C D  
   It feeds the rich while buries the poor  

     G          Bm  
   Your power hungry sellin' soldiers  

         Em  
   In a human grocery store  
   Ain't that fresh  

      G           Bm             Em C D  
   And I don't need your civil war  

  G          Bm              Em  
   I don't need your civil war  

  G          Bm              Em C D  
   I don't need your civil war  

     G           Bm  
   Your power hungry sellin' soldiers  

          Em  
   In a human grocery store  
   Ain't that fresh  

    G         Bm             Em C D  
   I don't need your civil war  

    G         Bm           Em   
   I don't need one more war

   G Bm7 Em C D G Bm Em  

        G         Bm           Em C D G  
   And I don't need one more war
