Verse 1 
 
Bb				   F 
There was decorated general with a heart of gold 
Cm			Gm 
That likened him to all the stories he told 
  Eb				Bb 
Of past battles won and lost and legends of old 
F 
A seasoned veteran in his own time 
Bb			     F 
On the battlefield he gained respect for fame 
Cm				Gm 
With many medals of bravery and stripes to his name 
  Eb				   Bb 
He grew a beard as soon as a he could to cover the scars on his face 
F 
And always urged his men on 
 Bb				F 
But on the eve of great battle with the infantry in dream 
   Cm				    Gm 
The old general tossed in his sleep a lesson with its meaning 
 Eb			  Bb 
He awoke from the night to tell what he had seen 
F 
And walked slowly out his tent 
Bb			     F 
All the men held tall with their chests in the air 
Cm				     Gm 
With the courage in their blood and the fire in their stare 
   Eb				  Bb 
And it was a grey morning and they all wondered how they would fare 
 F 
Till the old general told them to go home 
 
He said... 
 
Chorus 
 
 Bb     F         Cm     Gm          Eb 
I have seen the others and i have discovered 
            Bb			F 
That this fight is not worth fighting 
 Bb	F             Cm        Gm          Eb 
And i've seen their mothers and i will no other 
        Bb             F 
To follow me where i'm going, so... 
 Bb     F             Cm 
Take a shower and shine your shoes 
 Gm               Eb 
You got no time to lose 
          Bb			     F 
You are young men you must be living

Verse 2 
 
But the men stood fast with their guns on their shoulders 
 
Not knowing what to do with contradicting orders 
 
The general said he would do his own duty but extended it no further 
 
The men could go as they pleased 
 
But not a man moved their eyes gazed straight ahead 
 
Till one by one they stepped back and not a word was said 
 
The old general was left with his own words echoing in his head 
 
He then prepared to fight 
 
Chorus

Go now you are forgiven x10
