Bb F
There was a decorated General with a heart of gold
Cm Gm
That likened him to all the stories he told
Eb Bb
Of past battles won and lost and legends of old
F
A seasoned veteran in his own time
Bb F
On the battlefield he gained respectful fame
Cm Gm
With many medals of bravery and stripes to his name
Eb Bb
He grew a beard as soon as he could to cover the scars on
his face
F
And always urged his men on
Bb F
But on the eve of great battle with the infantry in dream
Cm Gm
The old general tossed in his sleep and wrestled with its meaning
Eb Bb
He awoke from the night to tell what he had seen
F
And walked slowly out of his tent
Bb F
All the men held tall with their chests in the air
Cm Gm
With the courage in their blood and a fire in their stare
Eb Bb
And it was a gray morning and they all wondered how they would
fare
F
Till the old general told them to go home
Chorus:
He said
Bb F Cm Gm Eb Bb
I have seen the others and I have discovered that this fight
F
is not worth fighting
Bb F Cm Gm Eb Bb
And I've seen their mothers and I will no other to follow me
F
where I'm going
Bb F Cm
So take your shower shine your shoes
Gm Eb
You got no time to lose
Bb F
You are young men you must be living
Bb F Cm
Take your shower shine your shoes
Gm Eb
Well you got no time to lose
Bb F
You are young men you must be living
Go now you are forgiven
Gm F Gm F
Bb F
But the men stood fast with their guns on their shoulders
Cm Gm
Not knowing what to do with the contradicting orders
Eb
The general said he would do his own duty but he would
Bb
extend it no further
F
The men could go as they pleased
Bb F
But not a man moved their eyes gazed straight ahead
Cm Gm
Till one by one they stepped back and not a word was said
Eb Bb
And the old general was left with his own words echoing in his head
F
He then prepared to fight
Chorus :
He said
Bb F Cm Gm Eb Bb
I have seen the others and I have discovered that this fight
F
is not worth fighting
Bb F Cm Gm Eb Bb
And I've seen their mothers and I will no other to follow me
F
where I'm going
Bb F Cm
So take your shower shine your shoes
Gm Eb
You got no time to lose
Bb F
You are young men you must be living
Bb F Cm
Take your shower shine your shoes
Gm Eb
Well you got no time to lose
Bb F
You are young men you must be living
Go now you are forgiven
Gm F Gm F
Bb F Cm Gm Eb Bb F
Bb F
Go now you are forgiven
