E minorEm        DsusDsus        E minorEm       DsusDsus
A augmentedA king of foreign country heard some rumours in the night
     E minorEm     DsusDsus      D MajorD      DsusDsus
That some other evil king is now preparing for a fight
  E minorEm        DsusDsus
He assembles all his generals
  E minorEm        DsusDsus
And asks them what to do
     E minorEm         DsusDsus       D MajorD         G+G
And with sternness in their eyes they look at him and say it's true

D MajorD       G+G
We're in the war; oh we're in the war

We're in the war; oh we're in the war

They're preparing thousand battleships to sail across the sea

And the general ahead of them are happy as can be
     E minorEm       DsusDsus    E minorEm      DsusDsus
When they reach the other shore they get a warm embrace
    E minorEm      DsusDsus        D MajorD         G+G
But the generals feel threatened so they shoot them in the face

D MajorD       G+G
In the war oh we're in the war
          D MajorD       G+G
We're in the war oh we're in the war

And in the war you can kill for no reason, it's no crime

E minorEm       DsusDsus      E minorEm      DsusDsus
And the fairies and the elves are just trying to survive
    E minorEm      DsusDsus     D MajorD         DsusDsus
And the lions and the elephants are running for their lives
    E minorEm      DsusDsus     E minorEm      DsusDsus
And the generals are firing seven hundred cannon balls
  E minorEm     DsusDsus    D MajorD      G+G
But no one understands what all this is for

D MajorD       G+G
In the war oh we're in the war

Oh, we're in the war

E minorEm       DsusDsus       E minorEm       DsusDsus
And now a thousand battle ships are landing on the shore
    E minorEm        DsusDsus        D MajorD          DsusDsus
And one hundred thousand soldiers don't know what they're looking for
     E minorEm        DsusDsus    E minorEm       DsusDsus
For they cannot find their enemies, no weapons and no war
    E minorEm         DsusDsus
So they start to shoot each other
       D MajorD           G+G
'Cause that's what they were trained for
