Вступление
[Intro]
Am D7 Am D7 Am
[Verse]
D7 Am
General Robert E Lee, is sitting on a stallion right in front of me
D7
The town says they’re gonna take the old statue down
Am
So, White Supremacists come
D7 Am
Snaking through the streets like something out of Genesis
C D7
I can’t believe my eyes, neither side is gonna back down
[Chorus]
F E7
When the war you’re fighting for
Am D7 F
Is born out of something disgraceful
E7 Am D7
You ain’t fighting honourably, General Lee
[Verse]
Am D7 Am
Friday night out on parade with their citronella tiki torches
D7
Townspeople left their porches to block the way
Am
And you could hear the hate in the words they shout
D7 Am
The camera caught their faces ‘fore the torch blew out
C D7
You should have worn the hood, you’re up to no good, tomorrow’s judgement day
[Chorus]
F E7
When the war you’re fighting for
Am D7 F
Is born out of something disgraceful
E7 Am D7
You ain’t fighting honourably, General Lee
[Instrumental]
Am D7 Am D7
[Verse]
Am
The Saturday protest got cancelled
D7
A helicopter crashed, it was too hot to handle
Am D7
Two cops down, skirmishes broke ‘round town
Am D7 Am
Lives blown out like a candle, the President must love a scandal
C D7
He wouldn’t take a side, though people died, and Heather Heyer got mowed down
[Chorus]
F E7
When the war you’re fighting for
Am D7 F
Is born out of something disgraceful
E7 Am D7
You ain’t fighting honourably, General Lee
[Bridge]
F E7
For a hundred and fifty years
Am D7
We’ve come so far, but you haven’t moved an inch
F E7
We will not flinch, there’s no one here to lynch
[Chorus]
F E7
When the war you’re fighting for
Am D7 F
Is born out of something disgraceful
E7 Am D7
You ain’t fighting honourably, General Lee
[Outro]
D7
General Lee
Am D7 Am
