He's five feet two, and he's six feet four, 
    C          D                G  (strum D string 2th fret and opened) 
He fights with missiles and with spears.  
       C            D              G       Em 
He is all of thirty-one, and he's only seventeen.

Been a soldier for thousand years.

       C                  D            G                Em 
And he knows, he shouldn't kill, and he knows he always will. 
         C                    Am        D 
Kill for me my friend and and me for you. 



          C            D            G             Em 
And he's fighting for Canada, he's fighting for France. 
      C               D   G 
He's fighting for the U.S.A.  
         C                D                   G            Em 
And he's fighting for the Russians, and he's fighting for Japan, 
        C               Am               D 
And he thinks we put an end to war this way. 



         C               D            G                Em 
And he's fighting for democracy, he's fighting for the Reds. 
   C                  D         G 
He says it's for the peace of all. 
         C               D             G                  Em  
He's the one who must decide, who's to live and who's to die, 
        C             Am              D 
And he never sees the writing on the wall. 



        C                  D                 G           Em 
But without him, how would Hitler have condemned him at Dachau, 
        C           D                 G 
Without him Caesar would have stood alone. 
          C                D         G              Em 
He's the one who gives his body as a weapon of the war, 
        C                D                G        D 
and without him all this killing can't go on.  
  

   
          C             D            G            Em 
He's the universal soldier and he really is to blame, 
       C              D            G 
His orders come from far away, no more. 
                 C                  D              
They come from here and there, and you and me,  
     G                  Em 
And brothers, can't you see,  
         C                           D 
This is not the way we put an end to war.
