          Em
He said, “Son,
	           B
Have you see the world?
                     A  
Well, what would you say
	       Em
If I said that you could?
                A
Just carry this gun 
	            Em
and you’ll even get paid.”
	                    B
I said, “That sounds pretty good.”


	      Em
Black leather boots
	       B
Spit-shined so bright
                A
They cut off my hair 
	       Em
but it looked alright
	           A
We marched and we sang
	      Em
We all became friends
	             B
As we learned how to fight




[chorus]
          F#m
A hero of war
                      A
Yeah that’s what I’ll be
	        Em
And when I come home
	                 B
They’ll be damn proud of me
                F#m
I’ll carry this flag
                  A
To the grave if I must
	                 Em
Because it’s flag that I love
	          B
And a flag that I trust




		
                Em
I kicked in the door
	    B
I yelled my commands
	           A
The children, they cried
	     Em
But I got my man
	    A
We took him away
	       Em
A bag over his face
                        B
From his family and his friends




                  Em
They took off his clothes
	           B
They pissed in his hands
               A
I told them to stop
	          Em
But then I joined in
	         A
We beat him with guns
	            Em
And batons not just once
