Belle & Sebastian - I fought in a war

^EmI fought in a war and I left^A my friends behind me To go ^Clooking for the enemy and it w^Basnt very long

^EmBefore I would stand with ano^Ather boy in front of me And a c^Corpse that just fell into me with the b^Bullets flying round

And I r^Geminded myself of the words you ^Amsaid when we were getting on And I ^Cbet youre making shells back home for a s^Bteady boy to wear

Round his n^Geck well it wont hurt to think of ^Amyou as if youre waiting for This l^Cetter to arrive because Ill ^Bbe here quite a while

^EmI fought in a war and I left^A my friends behind me To go l^Cooking for the enemy and it wa^Bsnt very long

^EmBefore I found out that the sick^Aness there ahead of me Went be^Cyond the bedsit infamy of the d^Becade gone before

And I re^Gminded myself of the words you ^Amsaid when we were getting on And I ^Cbet youre making shells back home for a s^Bteady man to wear

Round his n^Geck well it wont hurt to think of ^Amyou as if youre waiting for This l^Cetter to arrive because Ill b^Be here quite a while

^EmI fought in a war and I didn'^At know where it would end It str^Cetched before me infinitely I co^Buldn't really think

^EmOf the day beyond now keep your head^A down pal There's trouble plenty^C in this hour this day

I can see h^Bope I can see light

And I re^Gminded myself of the looks you ^Amgave when we were getting on And I ^Cbet youre making shells back home for a s^Bteady man to wear

Round his n^Geck well it wont hurt to think of ^Amyou as if youre waiting for This l^Cetter to arrive because Ill b^Be here quite a while
