I Donated Myself To The Mexican Army by Joseph Arthur
Key:AmAm| Capo:0fr|
AmDm
I donated myself to the mexican army
AmDm
We were 10000 guns shooting into the night
AmDm
Turning screams into sand and sand into blood
AmDm
And murdering darkness with fire and light
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I don't know where we're going from here
CCmaj7Am
I'm just following orders
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I don't know how we'll conquer the king
CCmaj7Dm
This ain't my revolution
AmDm
Out in the field there's no such thing as mercy
AmDm
We bloom through the night into flowers of death
AmDm
"I don't beleieve any thing that I've said"
AmDm
Jesus was heard saying under his breath
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I don't know where we're going from here
CCmaj7Am
I'm just following orders
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I don't know how we'll conquer the king
CCmaj7Dm
This ain't my revolution
AmDm
I donated myself to the mexican army
AmDm
I gave all my love to a mexican whore
AmDm
I gave her my dreams and I gave her my money
AmDm
I buried my family under her floor
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I don't know where we're going from here
CCmaj7Am
I'm just following orders
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I don't know how we'll conquer the king
CCmaj7Dm
This ain't my revolution
AmDm
I wish I believed in divine destinations
AmDm
I wish I believed in a world made of light
AmDm
The needles are biting the arms of salvation
AmDm
And the mexican army is trained and ready to fight
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I don't know where we're going from here
CCmaj7Am
I'm just following orders
CCmaj7CCmaj7
I don't know how we'll conquer the king
CCmaj7Dm
This ain't my revolution
