{Verse}
I [G+G] shot two [D MajorD] men in a [E minorEm] military [C majorC] car
On a [G+G] road in a [E minorEm] country I [G+G] can't pro-[D MajorD]-nounce
I [G+G] saw their [D MajorD] eyes when I [E minorEm] pulled the [C majorC] trigger
Then [G+G] checked the back [E minorEm] seat for the [G+G] body [D MajorD] count
I [E minorEm] know I'm lucky, I [C majorC] could have been
The [G+G] one be-[E minorEm]-neath the [G+G] clo-[D MajorD]-ver
But [G+G] who do you [D MajorD] think will [E minorEm] push my [C majorC] chair
[E minorEm] After the [G+G] parade is [D MajorD] o-[G+G]-ver

G+G D MajorD C-Cadd9-C-Cmaj7-C
E minorEm G+G D MajorD

A augmentedA [G+G] three star [D MajorD] general [E minorEm] at my [C majorC] back
And [G+G] another one [E minorEm] up at the [G+G] micro-[D MajorD]-phone
They [G+G] call me a [D MajorD] hero
And [E minorEm] sing "say can you [C majorC] see"
To the [E minorEm] pole where the [G+G] flag is [D MajorD] flown
[E minorEm] Everyone stands when my [C majorC] name is called
I [G+G] alone must [E minorEm] sit in the [G+G] god damn [D MajorD] sun
And [G+G] Who do you [D MajorD] think will [E minorEm] push my [C majorC] chair
[E minorEm] After the [D MajorD] parade is [G+G] done

{Bridge}
G+G F minorFm E minorEm
[E minorEm] Maybe I'll go to [C majorC] college
[E minorEm] GI bill
[C majorC] GI bill
[E minorEm] Maybe I'll go into [C majorC] politics
[E minorEm] Yes I will
[D MajorD] Yes I will

{Verse}
I'm [G+G] glad for the [D MajorD] disa-[E minorEm]-bility [C majorC] benefits
I'm [G+G] glad for the [E minorEm] medals and the [G+G] ribbons and the [D MajorD]
songs
I [G+G] hope the [D MajorD] blisters [E minorEm] on my [C majorC] fingers
[G+G] Turn into [E minorEm] calluses [G+G] before too [D MajorD] long
[E minorEm] I'm glad my mother could be [C majorC] here today
I'm [G+G] glad [E minorEm] somebody [G+G] drove [D MajorD] her
And [G+G] maybe [D MajorD] she will [E minorEm] push my [C majorC] chair
[E minorEm] After the [G+G] parade is [D MajorD] o-[G+G]-ver
[G+G] Maybe [D MajorD] she will [E minorEm] push my [C majorC] chair
[E minorEm] After the [G+G] parade is [D MajorD] o-[G+G]-ver
