Intro> G Em G Em

     G            Em
Wake up! Say good morning to
     C                   D
that sleepy person lying next to you
           Bm7                         Em
If there's no one there, then there's no one there,
       C                D
but at least the war is over

G Em G Em

     G               Em
It's us - yes, we're back again,
        C                         D
here to see you through, 'til the days end
           Bm7                  Em
And if the night comes, and the night will come,
        C             D
well at least the war is over

          B                     Em
Lift your head and look out the window
          C                               D
Stay that way for the rest of the day and watch the time go

Em7         G           C           D
Listen! The birds sing! Listen! The bells ring!
        C                        D
All the living are dead, and the dead are all living
    G               Emi
The war is over and we are beginning...

G Em

    G           Em
Gridlock on the parkway now,
        C                     D
the television man is here to show you how
            Bm7                        Em
The channle fades to snow, it's off to work you go,
       C                D
but at least the war is over

G Em G Em

      G                Em
She's gone, she left before you woke,
       C                       D
as you ate last night, neither of you spoke
        Bm7                  Em
Dishes, tv, bed the darkness filled with dread,
       C                D
but at least the war is over

          B                     Em
Lift your head and look out the window
          C                               D
Stay that way for the rest of the day and watch the time go

Em7         G           C           D
Listen! The birds sing! Listen! The bells ring!
        C                        D
All the living are dead, and the dead are all living

We won, or we think we did,
         C                   D
when you went away, you were just a kid
           Bm7                  Em
And if you lost it all, and you lost it,
        C                              D
we will still be there when the war is over

          B                     Em
Lift your head and look out the window
          C                               D
