DGEm7A7 This is where the allies bombed the school they say by mistake DGEm7A7 Here nobody takes me for a fool just for a fake DD/C#Bmb6G/F#GEm7 Later at the hotel bar the journalists are waiting DD/C#Bmb6G/F#GA7 I hurry back to my guitar while they're commiserating
DGEm7A7 And I'll be leaving soon DGEm7A7 I'll be leaving soon
DGEm7A7 Just as soon as we were on the ground we were back in the jet DGEm7A7 Just another three-day foreign tour we'd never forget DD/C#Bmb6G/F#GEm7 It's hard to sympathize with all this devastation DD/C#Bmb6G/F#GA7 Hopping 'round from site to site like tourists on vacation

DD/C#D/CBmA7 I can't help anyone 'cause everyone's so cold DD/C#D/CGm6/BbBm Everyone's so skeptical of everything they're told Cadd9G/BGm6/BbA7 And even I get sick of needing to be sold
