Strum
D-DU-UDU
 A day  with no glory
 A heart filled with fear
 Repeating  his story to make ourselves clear
 A voice  is unheard when it shouts from the hills
 Your king  in his castle never died on these fields
 There’s  blood on your hands, a smile on your face
 Wicked  intention, there’s money to be made
 A room  with no windows and a heart that can’t feel
 Shame  with no convictions and a view to a kill
 Tell me why,  why must we fight
 Why must we kill  in the name of what we think  is right
 And no more
 No war
 ‘Cause how do you know?
 The hate  in your eyes
 The lies on your tongue
 A hand  that kills the innocent, so quick to do wrong
 The belly  is full while we fight for what remains
 The rich  getting richer while the poor become slaves
 We kill  our own brothers, the truth is never told
 If victory  is freedom, then the truth is untold
 Surrender  your soldiers like everyone else
 If love  is my religion, don’t speak for myself
 Tell me why,  why must we fight
 Why must we kill  in the name of what we think  is right
 And no more
 No war
 ‘Cause how do you know?
 And how do you know?
 And how do you know?
 And how do you know?
 And how do you know?
 Please tell me why,  why must we fight
 Why must we kill  in the name of what we think  is right
 And no more
 No war
 ‘Cause how do you know?
 I'm living this life,
 I'm given these lies
 And how do I die  in the name of what you think  is right?
 And no more
 Oh Lord
 ‘Cause how do we know?
 And how do we know?
 And that's it. Really easy, straightforward song. But good nontheless.
