  "Holy War"

  

             Em                       G

  I've spent 20 years learning to live

       Am                    Em

  In a world that takes back all that it gives

        C             D

  But I do not want a war

  

  (Same for verse two)

  

                 Em    G   C     D

  'cause I'm not in for killing another man

  Em   G   C         D

        Defending my holy land

     Em           G             C    D

  As if there's a god who would understand

  

  (Verse 3 - same pregression as Verses 1 and 2)

  

  (Chorus 2 - same as 1)

  

  C - -- Em

                           Feeding the promised land

  

  (I'm sure if he just changes his bass strings like C-B-A-G-E, or if he

  changes the entire chord as in C-G-Am-G-Em....anyway, he starts with C

  and ends with Em!)

  

  C - -- Em

                           With your blood by my own hand

  C

  At Allah's own command

  D

  At Allah's own command

  

  

  Lyrics:

  

  I've spent twenty years learning to live

  In a world that takes back all that it gives

  But I do not want a war

  

  I don't know what's going on

  In the scenes behind

  I worry about it some of the time

  And I hope there's not a war

  

  'Cause I'm not in for killing another man

  Defending my holy land

  As if there's a god who would understand

  

  And I would walk across highways

  To find my fate

  If that might settle your crude debate

  But I do not want a war

  

  'Cause I'm not in for killing another man

  Defending my holy land

  As if there's a god who would understand

  

  Feeding the promised land

  With your blood by my own hand

  At allah's own command

  At allah's own command

  

  I came up from the desert and here I will die

  Tooth for tooth and an eye for an eye

  Though I didn't want a war

  

  I went in for killing another man

  Defending my holy land

  As if there's a god who would understand

  As if there's a god who would understand

  I went in for killing another man

  Defending my holy land

  As if there's a god who would understand

  As if there's a god who would understand

  Oh yeah...
