[Verse 1]
   Dm
So many came before you,
The prisoners of fate.
  Dm/C
A history of bloodshed,
A legacy of hate.
    C
But where will you be standing
         Bb
When the battles have been won?
  Gm
Inside your lonely fortress
    A               Bb  C
The battle's just begun.

[Chorus]
Dm        F
After the war
C               Bb
Who will you be fighting for?
Dm        F      Bb C
After the war is o ver.
Dm        F
After the fire
   C               Bb           Gm
Is burning to it's dying embers.
Am7              Dm Dm7

Dm  Dm
  A letter from the draft board,

[Verse 2]
Put pain to all your dreams.
       Dm/C
You're just another number
In military schemes.
     C
They marched you in a uniform
    Bb
You wore against your will.
     Gm
With lies of hope and glory,
     A                 Bb   C
They taught you how to kill.

[Chorus]
Dm        F
After the war
C               Bb
Who will you be fighting for?
Dm        F      Bb C
After the war is o ver.
Dm        F
After the fire
   C               Bb           Gm
Is burning to it's dying embers.
Am7          Bbsus2
   After the war.  

[Bridge]
                       Dm9
You thought you'd be a hero.
Bbsus2                      Dm9
      After all that you survived.
Bbsus2                      Dm9
      If hell was meant for heroes,
F      G               Asus4 A C/D
 You'd surely have arrived.
