Stars: Up in Our Bedroom After the War

Its not a perfect chord transcription, but its pretty close and sounds great
played solo acoustically.

Capo on 4

INTRO: G  Em x2

     G            Em                C                    D 
Wake up! Say good morning to 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                        C                           D 
It's us - yes, we're back again, 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
          Bm7                     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
 Am7     Em                  C           D
Listen! The birds sing! Listen! The bells ring!
        C                        D
All the living are dead, and the dead are all living
    G                    Em
The war is over and we are beginning...
     G               Em                        C                           D 
Gridlock on the parkway now, the television man is here to show you how
           Bm7                    Em                            
The channel fades to snow, it's off to work you go, 
        C            D
but at least the war is over
     G               Em                        C                           D 
She's gone, she left before you woke, 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
          Bm7                     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
 Am7     Em                  C           D
Listen! The birds sing! Listen! The bells ring!
        C                        D
All the living are dead, and the dead are all living
        C                        D
The war is over and we are beginning...
     G               Em                        C                           D 
We won, or we think we did, 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
          Bm7                     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
 Am7     Em                  C           D
Listen! The birds sing! Listen! The bells ring!
        C                        D
All the living are dead, and the dead are all living
        C                        D
The war is over and we are beginning...
        G                     Em                 G                     Em 
Here it comes! Here comes the first day! Here it comes! Here comes the first day!

{Repeat following lines until end}
          C                           D
It starts up in our bedroom after the war, 
C                            D
Up in our bedroom after the war, 
          G   Em             G   Em          
After the war!     After the war...
