Just out of the infantry this morning,
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I had to pay my dues across the sea,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
But no one back in boot camp ever warned me,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
What the readjustment blues would do to me.
Verse 2→ Phiên khúc
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
"Welcome to Havannah", said the pilot,
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
"We must have made a wroooong turn on the way."
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
"Let's buy some cigars and keep it quiiiet,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
If they don't know we're here we'll get away."
Verse 3→ Phiên khúc
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Just as I had realized he was joking,
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I saw we were in Washington D.C.,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
'Cause there was all the patriotic buiiiiildings.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Just like I had seen them on T.V.
ch]G[/ch
It must have been a holiday,
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
'cause there was this parade.
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
People carried signs I couldn't read that they had made.
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
'Till I got closer and my heart fell to my socks;
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
There was a battle raging and the air was
ch]F[/ch
Filled with teargas and rocks.
Verse 4→ Phiên khúc
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
There was the flag I'd fought against so often,
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
The one I fought for hanging upsiiiide down,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
The wind was blowing ha-AARD, the dirt was flying,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
It made the city sky-YY look dark and brown.
Verse 5→ Phiên khúc
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
I saw a girl… she could have been my sister,
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Except her hair was lo-OONG and in her face,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
She explained… this was a demonstraaaation,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Against the war… and foooor the human ra-AAACE.

ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Now I've seen a lot of strange things in my travels,
ch]Am[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
Cannibals, yes… and aliens galoooore,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
But I never thought I'd see so many peeeople
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
Saying we don't want your + + + wAAA-aa-aar!
ch]G[/ch
The troops all had on uniforms
ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
Just like the one I'd worn,
ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
But they were all domestic… and myy-yy duty chose waaar
ch]Em[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
They carried guuUUNS just like the ones across the sea,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Except this time I was the citizen
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And they was pointing their guns at meEEE,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Yes, I-III was just a citizen
ch]F[/ch] [ch]Am[/ch
And I was walking down the street,
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch] [ch]F[/ch
And it was just then that the Re-adjustment Bluuuuuuuuuuuues
