Verse 1:
Em G
This is a song that came upon me one night
Am
When the news it had been telling me
C D
About one more war and one more fight
Em
And 'aeh' I sighed but then
G
I thought about my friends
Am
Then I wrote this declaration
C D
Just in case the world end
Verse 2:
Our guns
Em G
We shot them in the things we said
Am
Ah we didn't need no bullets
C D
Cos we rely on some words instead
Em
Kill someone in argument
G
Outwit them with our brains
Am
And we'd kill ourselves laughing
C D
At the funny things we'd say
Verse 3:
And bombs
Em G
We had them saved for special times
Am
When the crew would call a shakedown
C D
We break down a party landmine
Em
Women that so sexy
G
They explode us with their looks
Am
Ah we blowing up some speakers
C D
Jumping round till the ground shook
Verse 4:
And missiles
Em G
They were the roadtrips that we launched
Am
T-t-tripping across this island
C D
Starting missions at the break of dawn
Em
Yawn and smile say
G
What direction shall we take?
Am
Somewhere where it warm and wet
C D
This be the route we'd always take and
Chorus:
Am Em
Our weapons were our instruments
G D C
Made from timber and steel
Am
We never yielded to conformity
Em
But stood like kings
G
In a chariot that's riding on a

Verse 5:
Em
And our airforce flying
G
When the frisbee in the sky
Am
Have a session while we're smoking
C D
Now we're feeling extra high
Em
And we'd sneak into a carpark
G
With the skaties on our back
Am
And we're flying down the levels howling
C D
On the attack now on the attack
Verse 6:
And battles
Em G
They happened in these dancehalls
Am
See we'd rather fight with music
C D
Choosing one the rhythm war
Em
Battle at these shakedowns
G
And we battle at these gigs
Am
We do battle in our bedrooms
C D
Made some sweet love to the beat
Bridge:
Em
Then our allies grew
G
Wherever we would roam
Am
See whenever we're together
C D
Any stranger feel at home
Em
In a way we are an army
G
But this army not destruct
Am
No instead we're doing simple things
C D
Good loving find it run amuck
Verse 7:
Em
This be a declaration
G
Written about my friends
Am
It's engraved into this song
C D
So they know I'm not forgetting them
Em
See maybe if the world contained
G
More people like these
Am
Then the news would not be telling me
C D
About all that warfare endlessly and
