You can't fight a war with nobody to fight back

All we're needin' is a reason it don't need to be clear...
No one cares about the waves

Em G Am
At the bottom of the ocean...

version 2
Em D Am
C Am Em
Em
You can't fight a war with nobody to fight back
G
But if we get to digging to the bottom of the stack
Em
We'll sell it to the youth and you never know, maybe
G
You'll get back home and you'll see your baby
Am
Oh oh, we'll just act like we care
Em
All we needed is a reason it don't need to be clear
G
Singing songs to the news it can play to their fears
Em
Someone's gotta die but you don't have to love it
G
But the military's still got more in its budget
Am
Oh, we always need more next year
(Em)
No one cares about the waves
C
At the bottom of the ocean
G D
And the bottom of the ocean
A
Is always blue
Em Dsus2
No one will remember
C
Cause nothing lasts forever
G D
And everybody's looking
A
For somebody to use
Em
When we can't bring them home and the war hasn't ended
G
There's still money there and that money needs spending
Em
The powers that be, we gotta do what we do
G
And if they never know it then they'll never feel used
Am
Oh oh oh, like i often do
Em
To all the pretty girls out there looking for heartache
G
Crying all i wanted is to be your baby
Em
And all the pretty girls out there living with heartache
G
Crying cause their never gonna see they're baby
Am
Oh oh, we just act like we care
Em Dsus2
No one cares about the waves
C
At the bottom of the ocean
G D
And the bottom of the ocean
A
Is always blue
Em Dsus2
No one will remember
C
Cause nothing lasts forever
G D
And everybody's looking
A
For somebody to use
Em Dsus2
No one will remember
C
Cause nothing lasts forever
G D
And the worlds always changing
A
and its always blue.
