Am  
Wait until the war is over 
G 
And we're both a little older 
Am 
The unknown soldier 
 
 
Am 
Breakfast where the news is read 
 
Television children fed 
G 
Unborn, living 
 
Living, dead 
F      C           D        Am    F   C   D 
Bullet strikes the helmet's head 
 
Am                       G 
And it's all over for the unknown soldier 
A                    G                   Am 
It's all over for the unknown soldier uh uh 
 
 
Bass:(E) 
 
Spoken:(Am) 
 
 
"Company, halt!" 
 
"Present Arms!" 
 
Make a grave for the unknown soldier 
Nestled in your hollow shoulder 
 
The unknown soldier 
 
Breakfast where the news is read 
Television children fed 
Unborn, living 
Living, dead 
Bullet strikes the helmet's head 
 
It's all over 
The war is over 
It's all over 
The war is over 
It's all over, baby, 
All over!
