D                  Dsus4    
Why is it wrong to be against war
D                          Dsus4
Don't know my left from my right anymore
D                       Dsus4 
Why don't we just put a lock on that door
D                       A     D
Why is it wrong to be against war

D / Dsus4 / D / Dsus4


Why is it wrong to be against fightin'
Civilians are dyin' and children are frightened
We live in a time when we should be enlightened
Why is it wrong to be against war

D / Dsus4 / D


Chorus

D      G             A 
Let it roll over the land
       D                 G
Let it pass from hand to hand
G                     A
Let it sound over the hill
          D            G    D   E
Catch the freedom, and sing our fill
       A
And we will


Why is it wrong to be against killin'
Why should we be so ready and willin'
And why do we think it's so damn fulfillin'
Why is it wrong to be against war

And why is it wrong to be against dyin'
You know that it leaves all those poor mothers cryin'
Why isn't it wrong that our leaders were lyin'
Why is wrong to be against war

Chorus

Home from over the sea
Bring them back to you and me
We need them here at our home
Did you see them standing at Superdome
All alone

Why must we fight to keep oil flowin'
Why can't we find us a new way of goin'
With all of our thinkin' and all of our knowin'
Why is it wrong to be against war
