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

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.
