Verse 1
SIb FA
There was decorated general with a heart of gold
DOm SOLmThat likened him to all the stories he told
Of past battles won and lost and legends of old
FAA seasoned veteran in his own time
SIb FAOn the battlefield he gained respect for fame
With many medals of bravery and stripes to his name
MIb SIbHe grew a beard as soon as a he could to cover the scars on his face
FAAnd always urged his men on
But on the eve of great battle with the infantry in dream
DOm SOLmThe old general tossed in his sleep a lesson with its meaning
MIb SIbHe awoke from the night to tell what he had seen
And walked slowly out his tent
SIb FAAll the men held tall with their chests in the air
DOm SOLmWith the courage in their blood and the fire in their stare
And it was a grey morning and they all wondered how they would fare
FATill the old general told them to go home
He said...
Chorus
I have seen the others and i have discovered
SIb FAThat this fight is not worth fighting
SIb FA DOm SOLm MIbAnd i've seen their mothers and i will no other
To follow me where i'm going, so...
SIb FA DOmTake a shower and shine your shoes
SOLm MIbYou got no time to lose
You are young men you must be living
Go now you are forgiven
SOL5 FA#5 FA5
Verse 2
But the men stood fast with their guns on their shoulders
Not knowing what to do with contradicting orders
The general said he would do his own duty but extended it no further
The men could go as they pleased
But not a man moved their eyes gazed straight ahead
Till one by one they stepped back and not a word was said
The old general was left with his own words echoing in his head
He then prepared to fight
