Dsus      Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)
Us, and them
              
And after all 
           G/D          D  A/D  D  A/D
We're only ordinary men
 Dsus2   Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)
Me, and you
                    
God only knows it's 
          G/D                  D  A/C#
Not what we would choose to do

 Bm
Forward he cried from the rear
               Bm/A  D/G  C
And the front rank  died
     Bm                                  Bm/A
The general sat and the lines on the map
 D/G                C
Moved from side to side

  Dsus2     Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)
Black and blue
                    
And who knows which 
               G/D      Dsus2
Is which and who is who
        Esus2/D  Dm(maj7)
Up and down
                    
And in the end it's 
      G/D                      D  A/D A/C#
Only round and round and round

  Bm
"Haven't you heard? It's a battle of words"
  Bm/A  D/G         C
The poster bearer cried
  Bm
"Listen son", said the man with the gun
   Bm/A   D/G            C
"There's room for you inside"

 Dsus2    Esus2/D    Dm(maj7)
Down and out
                                  G/D            D
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about
 Dsus2    Esus2/D   Dm(maj7)
With, without                    
And who'll deny it's 
          G/D                  D  A/C#
What the fighting's all about?

Bm
Out of the way, it's a busy day
Bm/A  D/G              C
I've got things on my mind
         Bm
For the want of the price of tea and a slice
  Bm/A   D/G  C
The old man  died
