          A5              E5                    F#5
"Over and out", she said, from a hospital bed
                                           D5
"For what it's worth It doesn't hurt don't cry"
          A5                      E5                     F#5
"Over and out", he said, with a forty-five to his head
                                   D5
"The war has taken everything from me, it's all I see"

so...

A5
Run for cover as fast as you can
       E5
Where fighters are lovers, enemies are friends
    F#5                            D5
And pens and knives apologize for leaving you tonight

A5 E5                    F#5 D5
     Leaving you tonight

          A5                E5                              F#5
"Over and out," he sighed, "it seems I've run out of time.
                                          D5
Please tell my wife I loved her more than life itself."
          A5              E5                      F#5
"Over and out," she sang, as the telephone rang
                                   D5
"There's no pain, no answering no more, no." 

so...

A5
Run for cover as fast as you can
       E5
Where fighters are lovers, enemies are friends
    F#5                            D5
And pens and knives apologize for leaving you

A5
Run for cover and you'll find us there
    E5
To take on the anguish, make it disappear  
      F#5                                 D5             E5   F#5  A5   E5
When hand grenades and napalm flames are leaving you tonight

D5                                  E5   F#5  A5   E5
Let this candle burn 'til you get home
  D5                                 E5   F#5  A5   E5
Never forget your face, never lose hope
   D5
Tonight...

A5
Run for cover as fast as you can
       E5
Where fighters are lovers, enemies are friends
    F#5                            D5
And pens and knives apologize for leaving you

A5
Run for cover and you'll find us there (Over and out)
    E5
To take on the anger, make it disappear (Over and out)
      F#5                          D5      D~
When razor blades were softly serenading you
