Intro: Bm G D A

Bm
East and West could not agree
                                                         G
So their generals gave a call and gathered troops at the border
Bm
With guns ready, drawn and aimed

each side was praying to a God
                                G
to bless them with strength and courage


           A      D          G       D              A     
And it was in His name the artillery lit the sky on fire
                A       D        G                D         A  
The people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.

Bm                             G   
Protest Songs in a response to Military Aggression
D                                 A
Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun
                     Bm (intro again)
But the battle raged on......

Bm
Sirens filled the air and the ground shook with war
                                                  G
Civilian casualties has been a cost that was predetermined
Bm
When interviewed for report victims pleaded in frustration
                                         G 
Their claim: That this was a war without reason

      A        D         G               D           A 
Bureaucrats engaged in debate to try and reach a resolution
                A       D        G                D         A 
The people sang protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun.

Bm                             G
Protest Songs in a response to Military Aggression
D                                 A 
Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun
                     Bm (intro)
But the battle raged on......

    A                    D              G            D 
The Broadcast like their prayers went unanswered and ignored
A
God, like the rest of the world, just watched in silence
          A             D                  G              D 
There was purpose to be served, there were fortunes to be earned
   A 
before a peace could be called to stop the fighting.

          Bm                             G
They sang protest songs in a response to Military Aggression
D                                 A 
Protest songs to try and stop the soldier's gun
                     Bm
But the battle raged on......

    Chords are good, but the placement of the chords above the lyrics does not match with the lyrics of the song.
