Paul said to Peter

"You gotta rock yourself a little harder;

Pretend the dove from above is a dragon and your feet are on fire"

And I got a girl in the war, Paul the only thing I know to do

Is turn up the music and pray that she makes it through

Because the keys to the kingdom got locked inside the kingdom

And the angels fly around in there, but we can't see them

And I gotta girl in the war, Paul I know that they can hear me yell

If they can't find a way to help, they can go to Hell

If they can't find a way to help her, they can go to Hell

INTERLUDE (I normal repeat the sequence of chords from the verses once)

Paul to Petey "you gotta rock yourself a little harder;

Pretend the dove from above is a dragon and your feet are on fire"

But I gotta girl in the war, Paul her eyes are like champagne

They sparkle, bubble over, in the morning all you got is rain

Sparkle, bubble over, in the morning all you got is rain

They sparkle, bubble over, in the morning all you got is rain

------------------------------------------------------------

I'm not sure how the part with Am and F at the end of each verse is actually played, but

is just about how I play it
