Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
(verse)
i got a friend he's a pure bred killing machine
they said he's waited his whole damn life for this
i knew him well when he was seventeen
now he's a man who'll be dead by christmas and
(bridge)
so, everybody's going to war
but we don't know what we're fighting for
they'll tell me its a worthy cause
no cause could be so worthy
(chorus)
If love is a drug I guess we're all sober
If hope is a song I guess it's all over
how can i have faith if faith is a crime
i don't want to die
If God's on our side, then God is a joker
Asleep on the job, his children fall over
Running out of the door and straight to the sky,
I don't want to die
(verse)
for every man that wants to rule the world
there'll be a man who just wants to be free
why do we learn what should not be learnt
too late to find a cure for this disease
(bridge and chorus as before)
