This song is played with a capo on the second but because there's a version of this song 
the website that has the right chords without the capo I'm doing a version for you all 
play without one.

Intro: Bm, F#m, D, A (x2)

Verse 1:
Bm       F#m
This is war
      D         A
Like you ain't seen
       Bm       F#m
This winter's long,
        D      A
It's cold and mean
        Bm     F#m
With hangdog hearts
      D   A
We stood condemned,
         Bm   F#m
But the tide turns now
     D    A
At Bethlehem

Interlude: Bm, F#m, D, A (x2)

Verse 2:
Bm      F#m
This is war
     D      A
And born tonight,
     Bm      F#m
The Word as flesh,
      D       A
The Lord of Light,
     Bm     F#m
The Son of God,
      D       A
The low-born king;
      Bm    F#m
Who demons fear,
          D     A
Of whom angels sing

Interlude: Bm, F#m, D, A (x2)

Verse 3:
Bm     F#m
This is war
    D        A
On sin and death;
     Bm        F#m
The dark will take
       D     A
It's final breath
 Bm       F#m
It shakes the earth,
  D            A
Confounds all plans;
Bm    F#m
The mystery
D          A
Of God as man
