D9 A4 D9/G A4 x2
Verse:
D9 A4 D9/G A4
You never change your mind once it's made up
D9 D4/G A4 A4/C#
Unless it's to crawl back on your knees
Chorus:
D9/G A4
Is that the way you want it?
D9 A4
You get back to the wall
D9/G
And put your hands up
A4
It's a holdup
D9 D9 A4
You give up like every time before
D9/G A4 D9
That is how you survived the war
Interlude: D9 D9/G A4 A4 x2
Verse(same progression):
You never multiply, all these divisions
You give yourself the least of parts
I put on my green felt hat, pack our privisions
Playing a merry Prince of Thieves
Chorus(same progression):
Is that the way you want it?
You get back to the wall
And put your hands up
It's a holdup
You give up like every time before
That is how you survived the war
Interlude: Dadd9 Dsus2/G A4 A4 x2 (kind of hold out I think on A4 as you
go into the next part)

D9 D9/G A4 A9
You're not gonna lose this one
D9 D9/G A4 A9
You don't have to cut and run
D9 D9/G A4 A9
I think you can choose to love and what is more
D9/G A4 D9
That is how you survived the war
Verse:
Now in a summer's day, spring a ripened plum
How will you live under the sun?
You follow the open road, remembering the guns
When you get lost under the trees
Chorus:
Is that the way you want it?
You get back to the wall
And put your hands up
It's a holdup
You give up like every time before
That is how you survived the war
D9/G A4 D9
That is how you survived the war
D9 A4 D9/G A4
You never change your mind once it's made up
