[Verse 1]
        Gm
In the falling rain in the snow
                  Gm
My grandpa was a soldier fighting in the German war
 F              Gm
Punishment for him if he ever complained
                   Gm
The pressure gets hard but he still bear the pain
               Gm
Oh Lord, bless every of the luckless they are
              Gm
Some of them managed to survive the crazy war
               Gm
But how can a young man be peaceful at all
             Gm             Eb     D7
If there is war allover and over again

[Verse 2]
               Gm
They all get drafted to fight for their pride
               Gm
None of them knew what is wrong or what is right
   F         Gm
Believe in what they have ever been told
             Gm
Servants of war do not live to get old
             Gm
So children don't you ever play this crucial game
            Gm
And if you do you got to bear all the blame
         Gm
And you finally will go insane
                  Gm              Eb     D7
Because there is war all over and over again


[Chorus]
