Am F C G Sirens filled the air and the ground shook with war civilian casualties had been a cost that was predetermined When interviewed for report victims plead in frustration their claim that this was a war without a reason And bureaucrats engaged in debate to try to reach a resolution The people sing protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun Protest songs in response to military aggression Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun The battle Raged On... Protest songs in response to military aggression Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun The battle Raged On... G Am F C While the broadcast like their prayers went unanswered and ignored G God like the rest of the world just watched in silence G Am F C There was purpose to be served there were fortunes to be earned G before a peace could be called to stop the fighting Protest songs in response to military aggression Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun Protest songs in response to military aggression Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun. Protest songs in response to military aggression Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun Protest songs in response to military aggression Protest songs try and stop the soldier's gun The battle Raged On...
