Intro:  
E D E D  D E
D E                                D E
  Generals gathered in their masses, Just like witches at black masses
D E                               D E
  Evil minds that plot destruction, Sorcerer of death's construction 
D E                               D E
  In the fields the bodies burning, As the war machine keeps turning
D E                          D E
  Death and hatred to mankind, Poisoning their brainwashed minds 
            D E
Oh lord yeah! 
G Gb F E  G Gb F E
E
Politicians hide themselves away, they only started the war 
Why should they go out to fight? 
                                   D E
They leave that role to the poor, yeah!
E E E E
E
Time will tell on their power minds, making war just for fun 
Treating people just like pawns in chess, 
                                       D E
Wait 'till their judgement day comes, yeah 
GGbFE GGbFE     DE
         (2x)   
D E                                  D E
  Now in darkness world stops turning, ashes where the bodies burning 
D E                              D E
  No more War Pigs have the power, hand of God has struck the hour
D E                               D E
  Day of judgement, God is calling, on their knees the war pigs crawling
D E                             D E
  Begging mercies for their sins, Satan, laughing, spreads his wings 
         D E
Oh lord yeah! 
D E  G Gb F E  G Gb F E
