D/F#
G
If I were to
D/F#
tell you
G
something, I
Asus4
haven’t till to
A
day
I would say that
D/F#
I’m a different
G
person than the one they
Asus4
sent
away
A
I have seen
Bm
fashion and
G
fame,
A
disap
A/G
pear to be dis
D/F#
covered
again
I have seen
G
ordinary
D/F#
days unfold, and
Em
towers
D/F#
fall and
G
planes
ex
Asus4
plode
A
So I became a
D/F#
sol
G
dier,
Asus4
09-2k
A
1
And then they sent me
D/F#
o—-
G
ver, oh
Asus4
Mama the things we’ve
A
done
I have seen
Bm
pleasure in
G
pain, From
A
either
A/G
side of this
D/F#
war
machine
I’ve seen the
G
horror in a
D/F#
mother’s eyes, When her
Em
baby
D/F#
falls and
G
angels
Asus4
rise…
A
Chorus:
Under the
G
flag, we got here, Under the
D/F#
flag, we fought here,
under the
Em
flag, I’m
D/F#
not sure,
G
I wanna go
Asus4
home.
A
Under the
G
sun, we let fly, Bullets and
D/F#
prayers, that God won’t buy
Em
Underneath the
A7-9
star spangled
Bm
ban
G
ner,
Under the
D/F#
Rockets red glare, the bombs
Asus4
bursting in
A
air
D/F#
G
D/F#
G
Mama, can I
D/F#
tell you
G
something?
Asus4
Mama, can I con
A
fess?
Even though I
D/F#
volunteered,
G
I
Asus4
didn’t sign up for
A
this!
I have felt
Bm
triumph and
G
shame,
A
To get these
A/G
oilfields
D/F#
running
again
G
So Halliburton and
D/F#
Chevron, Could
Em
fill their
D/F#
pipes and
G
burst their
Asus4
bombs…
A
Chorus:
Under the
G

And we all stand to

gether,
Bm/A
E/G#
We’re brothers to the

bone,
F#
One way or the
Bm
other,
Bm/A
G
Brothers we’ll get home…
