The C chord is struck once after the Eb
and then is percussively strummed after that
while singing continues till the next Bb chord
use power chords
Listen to it for the rhythm
Bb C Eb C
There's a war going on
Bb C Eb C
And the ones about to die are safe at home
Bb C Eb C
There's a war going on
Bb C Eb C
And your world stops feeling now
(C muted strums) Bb C Eb C
No it ain't about the same
(C muted strums Bb C Eb C
I know your mama and your daddy didn't tell you a thing
(C muted strums) Bb C Eb C
About the price of fame
(C muted strums) Bb C Eb C
And your world she's so deep Lord she's deep in shame
(Little change here
use power chords
listen for rhythm Bb C C Eb F Eb C 2x
then third time end on F instead of the Eb)
Ain't but one thing that's for sure
Everybody want some more
No one gonna do what's "right"
All we'll do is fight
There's a war going on
And the ones about to die are safe at home
There's a war going on
And the world stops feeling now
(use the change Chords here again with the next lyrics)
(Bb C C Eb F Eb C)
Way down deep in your soul
In that dark place you don't want to talk about
Why did you break the mold?
And your world she's so deep Lord she's deep in doubt
(C muted strums) Bb C Eb C
Ain't but one thing that's for sure
Everybody want some more ? No one gonna do what's "right"
All we do is fight
