B5 E5 Baby you dont understand, D5 I dont understand it all myself, A5 G5 But theres a brother on my left, and another on my right. B5 E5 And in his pockets just like mine, D5 A5 G5 Hes got a photograph, and theyre waiting for him back home. A5 And its weighing on my mind. E5 A5 I dont want to be a hero, I don?t want to die, E5 G5 But right here in the moment, you dont think twice. G5 D5 And I wonder, A5 D5 G5 D5 would I give my life, A5 D5 G5 D5 Could I make that sacrifice A5 D5 G5 When it came down to it could I take just a little blood, A5 Yes I would for you. A5 E5 You dont think about right. A5 You dont think about wrong. E5 D5 You just do what you gotta do to defend your own. A5 E5 D5 And I would do the same, for you.
