CAPO II

Chords: G5 , F#5 , A5 , D5 , B5 , F5 , E5


  G5        A5         D5
Mother you saw my eyes
  G5      F#5        D5
On the fourth of July
  G5          A5           D5
Under a banner of roman candles
  G5     A5      B5
Mother war is kind
  G5        A5         D5
Like hell but I am fine

Brother have you gone west
Have you followed through once yet
You are still younger how dare you forget
Brother war is best
In the morning when you've had rest

  G5
Like a lost dog between houses
  D5
In the unknown open country
  F5
Line up at dawn to see who's missing
  E5
My age is a metaphor
   D5                        A5
It only speaks of everything before

Daughter you wear my name
Those are my eyes keep 'em raised
I may have scars but I give more than I take
Daughter war is safe
Where you are far away
Lover are you gone
My heart has taken too much on
One octave lower than thunder it drums
lover war is done
In more ways than just one

Like a lost dog between houses
In the unknown open country
Like an outlaw now standing
At the foot of infinity
The sun is wild
And just in front of me
