UNIVERSAL SOLDIER  Donovan



He's [E]five foot [F#]two and he's [B]six feet [G#m]four
He [E]fights with [F#]missiles and with [B]spears
He's [E]all of thirty-[F#]one and he's [B]only seven[G#m]teen
He's been a [C#m]soldier for a thousand [F#]years
He's a [E]catholic, a [F#]hindu, an [B]atheist, a [G#m]jain,
A [E]buddhist and a [F#]baptist and a [B]jew
And he [E]knows he shouldn't [F#]kill
And he [B]knows he always [G#m]will
Kill you for [C#m]me, my friend and me for [F#]you
And he's [E]fighting for [F#]Canada, he's [B]fighting for [G#m]France
He's [E]fighting for the [F#]U.S.[B]A.[B7]
He's [E]fighting for the [F#]Russians and he's [B]fighting for [G#m]Japan
And he [C#m]thinks we'll put an end to war this [F#]way
And he's [E]fighting for de[F#]mocracy, he's [B]fighting for the [G#m]reds
He [E]says it's for the [F#]peace of [B]all[B7]
He's the [E]one who must de[F#]cide who's to [B]live and who's to [G#m]die
And he [C#m]never sees the writing on the [F#]wall
But with[E]out him how would [F#]Hitler have con[B]demned him at Da[G#m]chau
With[E]out him Caesar [F#]would have stood al[B]one[B7]
He's the [E]one who gives his [F#]body as a [B]weapon of the [G#m]war
And with[C#m]out him all this killing can't go [F#]on
He's the [E]universal [F#]soldier and he [B]really is to [G#m]blame
His [E]orders come from [F#]far away no [B]more
They come from [E]here and there and [C#m]you and me
And [B]brothers can't you [G#m]see
This is [C#m]not the way we put the end to war
