When The War Comes Home

C#m   C#m

            A                                     G#m
When they come for you, how will you let them take you?
                        F#m
Are you gonna let them break you?
          C#m
When they come for you.
           A                                   G#m
'Cause a lie was told, and from fear and greed it grew.
                                           F#m
And you can tell it 'til the whole world believes you,
                         B
But that don't make it true.

        F#m            B           E                   C#m
You can sit around and wait for the world to change its ways,
        F#m       B        C#m
You got lucky to live without it.
              F#m               B
But there will be no place to hide,
             E               C#m
When you're on the losing side.
          F#m             B                C#m
When the war comes home, what will you do about it?

          A                                  G#m
When you see the tanks come to the towns you live in,
                               F#m                    C#m
And the bullets, they come rippin' through your front door,
          A                                   G#m
And you're face to face with tyrants killing tyrants,
                      F#m
And children killing children,
                  B
Will you know the war?

        F#m            B           E                   C#m
You can sit around and wait for the world to change its ways,
          F#m        B        C#m
You got lucky to live without it.
              F#m               B
But there will be no place to hide,
             E               C#m
When you're on the losing side.
         F#m             B                C#m
When the war comes home, what will you do about it?
              F#m
What will you do?
              C#m
What will you do?
              F#m
What will you do?
              C#m
What will you do?

            A
When the dust clears,
                                  G#m
And the profiteers behind closed curtains,
                                     F#m
Send their soldiers to collect their fortunes,
                       C#m
From the holes in your chest.
            A                                   G#m
Will they claim the sky and name it after their kingdoms?
                   F#m
The merchants of machine guns.
                 B
Who will win the West?

        F#m             B            E                   C#m
You can sit around and wait for the world to change its ways,
         F#m        B          C#m
You got lucky to live without it.
             F#m            B
But you can't hide from the shooting,
             E                  C#m
When you're on the side that's losing.
         F#m             B               C#m
When the war comes home, what will you do about it?
              F#m
What will you do?
              C#m
What will you do?
              F#m
What will you do?
              C#m
What will you do?
