    C majorC          E minorEm
We were soldiers in a bloody sex war
     C majorC              E minorEm
Without a clue 'bout what we'd signed on for
   FF               E minorEm
But we fought the good fight and we fucked each other down
       FF              E minorEm
I sucked the venom out of your bite, went back for another round
    C majorC       E minorEm
Of your sloppy, sloppy buffet
       C majorC          E minorEm
Watching the chips falling where they may
   FF           E minorEm
And we tried it my way, and then we tried it yours
     FF                E minorEm
Stopping traffic on the highway with our public intercourse

  C majorC
Of course we did now didn't we
       G+G         A minorAm
And there was no remorse, no regrets of any kind
    C majorC          FF
We were so unsightly but we paid no mind
     G+G
It was a sex war
      A minorAm
And we were watching it unwind
     C majorC           FF
From our front row seats on the front lines
      C majorC     FF              C majorC
And we were wild eyed, shell shocked and messed up
           Cadd9Cadd9
Cracked actors ready for our close up

Huh!

    C majorC             E minorEm
We were fighting for a perverse future
     C majorC             E minorEm
For every man, women, child and computer
   FF  Fmaj7Fmaj7         E minorEm
And we had our instructions so we marched into the fray
     FF   Fmaj7Fmaj7           E minorEm
Where I sampled your love suction and you showered in my spray
    (INTRO RIFF or chords below)
    Cmaj7Cmaj7          E minorEm
And you didn't know who you were shooting at
     (INTRO RIFF or chords below)
     Cmaj7Cmaj7              E minorEm
I didn't care that your boobies were booby trapped
    FF   Fmaj7Fmaj7         E minorEm
We were all in this together, it was just like Vietnam
       FF   Fmaj7Fmaj7         E minorEm
Except with a whole lot more leather and a whole lot less napalm

CHORUS 2
--------
C majorC
 Less napalm...
G+G              A minorAm
 We watch in wonder as the enemy gets
     C majorC          FF
On the receiving ends of our bayonets
     G+G      A minorAm
It was a sex war, no truce in sight
    C majorC            FF
Sending home body bags on every cargo flight
      C majorC         FF
And we were killing machines letting all our guns fly
C majorC      Cadd9Cadd9
Sex marines, Semper Fi

E minorEm            FF
 Our hearts racing every night as we hunker
    C majorC          FF
In the dirty confines of our love bunker
     G+G          A minorAm
This is a sex war and we ain't going AWOL
    C majorC      DmDm      E minorEm      FF
Letting god sort 'em out after we kill 'em all
      C majorC     DmDm   E minorEm   FF
And we were over stimulated American heroes
C majorC       DmDm       E minorEm    FF
Fighting to prevent the next sex ground zero
C/GC/G     Dm/A     Em/B    F/CF/C
Notified by unwanted knocks upon your front doors
C majorC        Cadd9Cadd9
 Fresh kills Casualties of sex wars!

Note: The four X/Y chords above aren't in the song I was just trying to
recreate the sense of crescendo. If you choose to play the preceding chords low
on the neck, then these can be useful for climbing into position for the final
Cadd9.
