Verse 1:
Am     G         Am
Back in the days of shock and awe
C     G       Am
We came to liberate them all
Am       C       D     F
History was the cruel judge of overconfidence
Am     G         F     E
Back in the days of shock and awe

Am     G        Am
Back in the days of "mission accomplished"
C       G       Am
Our chief was landing on the deck
Am     C      D      F
The sun was setting on a golden photo op
Am     G        Am
Back in the days of "mission accomplished"

Am      G       Am
Thousands of bodies in the ground
C         G          Am
Brought home in a boxes to a trumpet's sound
Am   C    D        F
No one sees them coming home that way
Am    G       Am
Thousands buried in the ground

Bridge:
Am E
Am F
Am G Am
C G Am
Am G F E

Verse 2:
Am      G          Am
Thousands of children scarred for life
C      G           Am
Millions of tears for a soldier's wife
Am     C      D         F
Both sides losing now, Heaven takes them in
Am      G          Am
Thousands of children scarred for life

Am    G          Am
We had a chance to change our mind
C      G         Am
But somehow wisdom was hard to find
Am      C        D        F
We went with what we knew an now we can't go back
Am      G          Am
But we had a chance to change our mind.

Outro:

Am F
Am G Am
