This one was kind of difficult to make, since I had to do it by ear.
However, I think the chords are pretty close.
This is from the album Lost Causes.
The chords for all verses are the same, and the chords for all choruses are the same.
Should be played like a dirge.
V1
Dm Am
I'll see you on Sunday just after the war
Gm F
We'll hang up our bruised old arms on the wall
Dm Gm Edim Dm
so check all your armor and guns at the door we?ll drink to the end of it all
Gm F C Edim Dm Edim Dm
we?ll check all our armor and guns at the door on Sunday after the war
Dm Am
we?ll drown it in brandy, we?ll drown it in wine
Gm F
when all of the ships have laid anchor ashore
Dm Gm
I?ll pay for your sorrow if you?ll pay for mine
Edim Dm
when the ships have laid anchor ashore
Gm F C Edim Dm Edim Dm
I?ll pay for your sorrow if you?ll pay for mine on Sunday after the war
Chorus 1
Bb F Gm
after the war, after the war,
Gm F Edim Dm
all the bells will be ringing after the war
Bb F G#
after the war, after the war,
F Edim Dm
oh nothing will be as before
Am Gm F Am
on Sunday just after the war
V2
I?ll see you on Sunday just after the war
we?ll wipe all the mud & the blood from our boots
the grunts & the brass, volunteers & recruits
will carry their burdens no more
they?ll sell off their burdens at the old surplus store
on Sunday after the war
I?ll try to get used to my house & my bed
when the flags have been folded & put in the drawer
i?ll try to forget what I got in my head
on Sunday just after the war
when the flags have been folded & put in the drawer
on Sunday after the war
Chorus 2
after the war, after the war,
all the birds will be singing after the war
after the war, after the war,
oh nothing will be as before
on Sunday just after the war
V3
the meadow is heavy with drink from our veins
& some mother?s son ain?t no boy anymore
I swear I won?t even try to explain
how meadows & fingers are stained
if you ask me I swear I won?t try to explain
on Sunday after the war
so i?ll see you on Sunday just after the war
we?ll cast our remembrance down in the grave
where so many others who no one could save
are smothered in brothers as brave
we?ll cast our remembrance down in the grave
on Sunday after the war
Chorus 3
after the war, after the war,
they?re always recruiting after the war
after the war, will everything be as before
on Sunday just after the war
