He said, [E]"Son,
Have you see the [G#m]world?
Well, what would you[A] say
If I said that you [E]could?
Just carry this [A]gun and youâ??ll even ge[E]t paid."

Black leather [E]boots
Spit-shined so [G#m]bright
They cut off my [A]hair but it looked [E]alright
We marched and we [A]sang
We all became [E]friends

As we learned how to fight

A hero of [C#m]war
Yeah thatâ??s what Iâ?[A]?ll be
And when I come [E]home
Theyâ??ll be damn proud o[B]f me
Iâ??ll carry thi[C#m]s flag
To the grave if I [A]must
Because itâ??s the flag that [E]I love
And a flag that I [B]trust

I kicked in the [E]door

The children, they [A]cried
But I got my [E]man
We took him [A]away
A bag over his [E]face

They took off his [E]clothes
They p**sed in his [G#m]hands
I told them to [A]stop
But then I joined [E]in
We beat him with [A]guns
And batons not just [E]once

She [E]walked through bullets and [G#m]haze
I asked her to [A]stop
I begged her to [E]stay
But she pressed [A]on
So I lifted my [E]gun
B Fill1 Fill5

The [E]shells jumped through the [G#m]smoke
And into the [A]sand
That the blood now had [E]soaked
She [A]collapsed with a flag in her [E]hand
B Fill1
A flag white as snow
A hero of [C#m]war
Is that what the [A]see
Just medals and [E]scars
So damn proud of [B]me
And I brought home that [C#m]flag
Now it gathers [A]dust
But itâ??s a flag that [E]I love
Itâ??s the only flag [B]I trust
The Outro is picked like this (The E-chord on the end is strummed):
