[Verse 1]
                                 F
Fathers are pleading, lovers are all alone
            C
Mothers are praying, "Send our sons back home"
                             F
Oh, you marched them away on ships and planes
     C
To a senseless war, facing death in vain

[Chorus]
C
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     F
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     C
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     F
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
Am       G      F      Am       G       F
Turn the ships around, lay your weapons down

[Verse 2]
                   C
Can't you see them marching across the sky
        F                                      C
All the soldiers that have died, trying to get home
C
Can't you see them trying to get home
              F     C
Trying to get home, trying to get home
                      F
Cease all fire on the battlefield
       C
Enough men have already been wounded and killed

[Chorus]
C
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     F
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     C
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     F
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
Am       G      F      Am       G       F
Turn the ships around, lay your weapons down

[Instrumental]
C         F     C
C
Trying to get home, trying to get home
C
Trying to get back home, oh, trying to get home

[Chorus]
C
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     F
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     C
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)
                     F
Bring the boys home (bring them back alive)

What they doing over there now, when we need 'em over here now
          C                             F
What they doing over there now, when we need 'em over here now
                              C
Bring 'em bring 'em bring 'em home (bring them back alive)
                              C
Bring 'em bring 'em bring 'em home (bring them back alive)

Bring 'em bring 'em bring 'em back, back home (bring them back alive)
