C/G
War isn't murder

Good men don't die

Children don't starve and all the women survive
Am/E
War isn't murder

That's what they say

When you're fighting the Devil

Murder's okay

War isn't murder
G              G7
They're called casualties

There ain't a veteran

With a good night's sleep


🎸 Chorus:
N.C.             F
Let's talk about dead people
         F7
I mean a dead people
C
The dead don't feel honor

                     A7
They don't feel that brave
                D7
They don't feel avenged
                      G
They're lucky if they got graves
         (G/B) C
Call your dead mother
             A7
Ask her when she died
                D7                  G
It's a deathly silence on the other line
               F
The dead don't talk
                            Fm
But their children don't forget
               C
So in 20 short years

🎸 Verse:
C/G
War isn't murder

There's money at stake

Hell, even Kushner agrees

It's good real estate
Am/E
War isn't murder

Ask Netanyahu

He's got a psalm for that

He's got a bomb for you
G
War isn't murder
     G7
It's an old desert faith

It's a nation state sanctioned righteous hate

       F7
I mean a dead people

                      A7
It's the vengeance of God
                     D7
If you can't see the bodies
                           G
They don't bloat when they rot
              G/B   C
And the flies don't swarm
                       A7
And the children don't cry
             D7
If war isn't murder
               G
Good men don't die
        F
So in a short 20 years
          Fm
Where you vacation the Strip
            C
Try not and think about the dead

And have a nice trip


🎸 Verse:
C/G
War isn't murder

Let's all give thanks

I saw it all in a movie
N.C.
Give it up for Tom Hanks
Am
War isn't murder

They don't ship out the poor

And the bullets they fire

Ain't part of the cure
G
War isn't murder
G7
Land is a right
N.C.
But the banks called dibs

It's something you can't fight
                 F
Let's talk about dead people
         F7
I mean a dead people
C
The dead don't feel honor
