[Intro]
C5 Cmaj7 Em A5/E Am7 A5 G5 G5* (x2)
[Verse]
C5 Cmaj7 Em A5/E Am7 A5 G5 G5*
Now the air's gettin' colder, and the news keeps us scared
C5 Cmaj7 Em A5/E Em A5 G5 G5*
They'll have wrestle this summer from the bones of our tired and blistered hands
F5 Fsus2 A5 Am7 G5
'Cause tonight we got drinks, just a couple of friends,
F5 A5 Am7 G5* G5
and the girl that my brother likes is finally talkin' to him,
F5 Fsus2 F5 A5 G5 G5*
and his chest is all swelled like he's proud and happy,
F5 G5 G5* G5
like he's got a great idea, like he's makin' a memory...
[Chorus]
(C) (Am7add9) (G7sus4)
C5 A5 G5
Wake up, and come out to the car, there's an
(C) (Am7add9) (G7sus4)
C5 A5 G5
east swell comin', the wind is howlin' offshore, and we'll be
(Fsus2) (G5*) (G5)
F5 F5 A5 G5
lyin' like lions out in the sand,
(Fsus2) (F5) (G5*)(G5)
F5 A5 G5 (C5)
but i'll be dead 'fore you put a gun in my brother's hands.
[Interlude]
C5 Cmaj7 Em A5/E Am7 A5 G5 G5* (x2)
[Verse]
C5 Cmaj7 Em A5/E Am7 A5 G5 G5*
So we make jokes back home, and we lighten the mood,
C5 Cmaj7 Em A5/E Am7 A5 G5 G5*
but growing up my parents saw what sending a kid to fight can really, really do.
F5 A5 G5
But now with the war, I can tell they're a little shook up
F5 A5 G5
it's just a few mothers sons, it's ?, but it's never gonna be enough
F5 A5 G5
not till half of our names are etched out in the wall,
F5 G5
and the other half ruined from the things we saw...
[Chorus]
(C) (Am7add9) (G7sus4)
C5 A5 G5
Wake up, and come out to the car, there's an
(C) (Am7add9) (G7sus4)
C5 A5 G5
east swell comin', the wind is howlin' offshore, and we'll be
(Fsus2) (G5*) (G5)
F5 F5 A5 G5
lyin' like lions out in the sand,
(Fsus2) (F5) (G5*)(G5)
F5 A5 G5 (C5)
but i'll be dead before you put a gun in my brother's hands.
[Interlude]

Wake up, and come out to the car, there's an

east swell comin', the wind is howlin' offshore, and we'll be
(Fsus2) (G5*) (G5)
F5 F5 A5 G5
lyin' like lions out in the sand,
(Fsus2) (F5) (G5*)(G5)
F5 A5 G5 (C5)
