[Verse 1]
       Dm                           Dm
If you sang the song the way it was written
        Dm                             A7
And you march along to the beat of the drum
Dm                              G7
Someday soon, you gonna wake up singin'
    Dm            A7                Dm     Dm
The battle is over, but the war go  on

[Verse 2]
Dm                            Dm
Everybody plays follow the leader
Dm                       A7
What if the leader has a gun?
Dm                               Dm            G7
Remember when you jumped, to the eight o’clock whistle
    Dm            A7                 Dm     Dm
The battle is over, but the war go  on

[Instrumental]
Dm  Dm  Dm  Dm
Dm  Dm  Dm  Dm

[Verse 3]
    Dm                                Dm
You close your eyes when you hear the thunder
Dm                                   A7
Cry in the rain and you smile in the sun
Dm                               G7
Who do you fool, but me and you, brother?
    Dm            A7                 Dm     Dm
The battle is over, but the war goes on

[Verse 4]
   Dm                         Dm
If talk was money, you'd be a millionaire
   Dm                                     A7
If thoughts could kill, there'd be no one here
   Dm                             G7
So many thinkin’ evil and talkin' jive
         Dm               A7                Dm            Dm
But it's only true love, this old world can stay alive

[Outro]
    Dm                 Dm
The battle is over,
    Dm                                   Dm
The battle is over you, but the war goes on
    Dm                                   Dm
The battle is over you, but the war goes on
