He said...
Verse 1.
..."[F]Son, have you seen the [Am]world?
Well, what would you [Bb]say
If I said that you [F]could?
Just carry this [Bb]gun,
You'll even get [F]paid.".
I said "That sounds pretty [C]good."
Verse 2.
Black leather [F]boots,
Spit-shined, so [Am]bright.
They cut off my [Bb]hair,
But it looks al[F]right.
We marched and we [Bb]sang.
We all became [F]friends,
As we learned how to [C]fight.
Chorus 1.
A hero of [Dm]war!
Yeah, that's what I'll [Bb]be.
And when I come [F]home,
They'll be damn proud of [C]me.
I'll carry this [Dm]flag;
To the grave, if I [Bb]must.
'Cause it's a flag that I [F]love
And I flag that I [C]trust.
Verse 3.
I kicked in the [F]door,
I yelled my [Am]commands.
The children, they [Bb]cried,
But I got my [F]man.
We took him [Bb]away,
A bag over his [F]face,
From his family and his [C]friends.
Verse 4.
They took off his [F]clothes,
They pissed in his [Am]hands.
I told them to [Bb]stop,
But then, I joined [F]in.
We beat him with [Bb]guns
And batons, not just [F]once,
But again and a[C]gain.
Chorus 1.
A hero of [Dm]war!
Yeah, that's what I'll [Bb]be.
And when I come [F]home,
They'll be damn proud of [C]me.
I'll carry this [Dm]flag;
To the grave, if I [Bb]must.
'Cause it's a flag that I [F]love
And I flag that I [C]trust.

She...
Verse 5.
...[F]walked through bullets and [Am]haze.
I asked her to [Bb]stop;
I begged her to [F]stay.
But she pressed [Bb]on,
So I lifted my [F]gun
And I fired [C]away...
Verse 6.
And the [F]shells
Jumped through the [Am]smoke.
And into the [Bb]sand,
That the blood had now [F]soaked,
She coll[Bb]apsed,
With a flag in her [F]hand.
A flag white as [C]snow.
Chorus 2.
A hero of [Dm]war!
Is that what they [Bb]see?
All medals and [F]scars?
So damn proud of [C]me.
And I brought that flag [Dm]home.
Now it gathers [Bb]dust.
But it's a flag that I [F]love.
It's the only flag I [C]trust.
Outro.
He said "[F]Son, have you seen the [Am]world?
Well, what would you [Bb]say
If I said that you [F]could?
