NOTHING!
Repeat the above bit x4
Ebm
War - I despise
Cos it means destruction of anything alive
War means tears
In a thousand mothers eyes
When their sons go off fighting and lose their lives I said
Ebm F# F# Ebm F# F#
WAR! HUH! WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR? (absolutely) NOTHING! (War!)
Ebm F# F# Ebm F# F#
WAR! HUH! WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR? (absolutely) NOTHING! (Good god!)
Ebm F# F# Ebm F# F#
WAR! HUH! WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR? (absolutely) NOTHING!
Ebm
War has shattered many young man's dreams
Playing the same old (???????????????)
Life is too short and precious to spend fighting
War don't bring life, it can only take it away I said
Ebm F# F# Ebm F# F#
WAR! HUH! WHAT IS IT GOOD FOR? (say it again) NOTHING! (what?)

Ebm
I know we must fight to keep our freedom
But I know there's got to be a better way
then vocally ad lib it with various echoed 'NO!'s and 'Woah-oh's and stuff
for a bit then:
N.C.
WARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWARWAR... etc.
Note:
During the verses - the Ebm changes slightly like, and I can't say
for sure what to here are the chords it might be, it could be all
of them - but it makes playing the verses more interesting anyway!
