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)

Bridge:
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

End on Dsus2
