I've seen and done things I want to forget;
Em A G F#m Em
I've seen soldiers fall like lumps of meat,
Em A G F#m Em
Blown and shot out beyond belief.
Em A G F#m Em
Arms and legs were in the trees.
Em A G F#m Em
I've seen and done things I want to forget;
Em A G F#m Em
coming from an unearthly place,
Em A G F#m Em
Longing to see a woman's face,
Em A G F#m Em
Instead of the words that gather pace,
Em
The words that maketh murder.
G Gm
These, these, these are the words-
Dm Cm
The words that maketh murder.
G Gm
These, these, these are the words-
Dm Cm
The words that maketh murder.
G Gm
These, these, these are the words-
Gm
Murder...
Em
These, these, these are the words-
A G F#m Em
The words that maketh murder.
Em A G F#m Em
I've seen and done things I want to forget;
Em A G F#m Em
I've seen a corporal whose nerves were shot
Em A G F#m Em
Climbing behind the fierce, gone sun,
Em A G F#m Em
I've seen flies swarming everyone,
Em A G F#m Em
Soldiers fell like lumps of meat.
Em
These are the words, the words are these.
G Gm
death lingering, stunk,
Dm Cm
Flies swarming everyone,
G Gm
Over the whole summit peak,
Dm Cm
Flesh quivering in the heat.
G Gm
This was something else again.
Dm Cm
I fear it cannot be explained.
G Gm
The words that make, the words that make
Gm Dm Cm
Murder.
Bb Gm Dm Cm
What if I take my problem to the United Nations?
