    Em7
Oh, send me off to war
       D
With a gun in my hand
Am7
But I won't pull the trigger
    Em7
Our destiny is here
           D
'Neath the red, white and blue
Am7
So lead me to the slaughter

     Fmaj7
Now don't be afraid come and join the parade
        Em7
For the ultimate in sacrifice
        Fmaj7
It's an old-fashioned story of hope and of glory
  Am7                  Bm
A ticket for taking a life

Em7 D    Em7              D     Em7
I,      I don't want to be a hero
Em7              D       Em7  D
I don't want to die for you
Em7              D       Em7  Bm D Bm D
I don't want to be a hero

   Em7
Oh send me off to war
     D
In a far away land
Am7
I never knew existed
    Em7
Subject me to the truth
       D
To the horror and pain
Am7
Until my mind is twisted

    Fmaj7
And what if I fail will you put me in jail
      Em7
For a murder I will not commit?
         Fmaj7
'Cos you don't understand till there's blood on your hands
           Am7                  Bm
That it's time to forget and forgive

Em7 D    Em7              D     Em7
I,      I don't want to be a hero
Em7              D       Em7  D
I don't want to die for you
Em7              D       Em7
I don't want to be a hero
Em7 Fmaj7 Bb | F Bb | F Bb | Bb |

    Fmaj7
And those who return come back only to learn
      Em7
That they're hated by those who they love
            Fmaj7
'Cos you're not satisfied till a thousand have died
         Am7                   Bm
And your anger is paid for in blood

Em7 D    Em7              D     Em7
I,      I don't want to be a hero
Em7              D       Em7  D
I don't want to die for you
Em7              D       Em7
I don't want to be a hero
