The Who - I've Known No War: chords

Chorus:
D
I've known no war
And if I ever do I won't know for sure
Who'll be fighting whom
         G/D
For the soldiers lonely tomb
    C G                   D A
Now opens as soon as the referee's
               F C D A
gun starts to roar

               D G Am C
I've known no war
                     D G Am  C
No I've never known war

     D
Galbraith took his pen
     G
To break down the men
       Am             C
Of the German army defeated
        D
On the nineteenth day
        G
Of a spring day in May
Am                  C
Albert Speer was deleted
        G                     Am
And as soon as the battle was over
       Bm                  C
I was born in victorious clover
          D                     Em
And I've never been shot at or gassed
                    F     G
Never tortured or stabbed
         Dm C D A                 D
And I'm sure,    I'll never know war

Chorus:
G                    D
No, I'll never know war
       G
Oh no no
                        D
I know I'll never know war
         G
And if I ever do
The glimpse will be short
 D
Fireball in the sky
     G
No front line battle cries
        C G                    D A
Can be heard as the button is pushed
                       F C  D A
By a soul that's been bought

              D G Am C
I'll know no war. No!
              D G Am C
I'll know no war

In and out of reach loft
The medals are lost
They belong to a lone broken sailor
His provinces now
Are the bars of the town
His songs and his poems of failure
For his grandchildren can't see the glory
And his own kids are bored with the story
But for him they'd have burned behind netting
From the brink they were grabbed
And I am sure
I'll never know war

I've known no war
And if I ever do I won't know for sure
Who will be fighting whom
For the soldiers lonely tomb
Now opens as soon as the referee's
gun starts to roar
I'll know no war

Chorus:
War – I have known no war
I'll never know war
And if I ever know it
The glimpse will be short
Fireball in the sky
No front line battle cries
Can be heard as the button is pushed by
a soul that's been bought
And the armies remaining will judge
without people or courts
And there's no point pretending that
knowing will help us abort
I'll know no war
