[Intro]
| Gb - Cb Gb/Bb | Db - -   - | Gb  - Cb Gb/Bb | Db - - - |
| Gb - Cb Abm7  | E  - Ebm - | Abm - -  -     | Db - - - |

[Verse 1]
Oh,
  Gb             Cb     Gb/Bb Db
I marched to the Battle of    New Orleans
       Gb         Cb    Gb/Bb       Db
At the end of the early British wars
  Gb                 Cb     Abm7
A young land started growing
         E              Ebm
The young blood started flowing
    Cb                       Db
But I ain't amarching anymore

[Verse 2]
         Gb                   Cb   Gb/Bb      Db
For I've killed my share of Injuns in   a thousand
different fights
      Gb           Cb     Gb/Bb Db
I was there at the Little Big   Horn
        Gb          Cb   Abm7
I heard many men alying I
    E          Ebm
saw many more adying
    Cb                       Db
But I ain't amarching anymore

[Chorus]
     Cb                Gb
It's always the old to lead us to the wars
Cb         Ebm     Ab
Always the young to  fall
    Cb                             Gb               Ebm
Now look at all we've won with the saber and the gun
Cb                     Db
Tell me is it worth it all?

[Verse 3]
      Gb        Cb     Gb/Bb    Db
For I stole California from the Mexican land
Gb              Cb     Gb/Bb    Db
  Fought in the bloody Civil War
       Gb             Cb      Abm7
Yes, I even killed my brothers
    E       Ebm
And so many others
    Cb                       Db
But I ain't amarching anymore

[Verse 4]
      Gb             Cb      Gb/Bb    Db
For I marched to the battles of   the German trench
        Gb         Cb       Gb/Bb   Db
In a war  that was bound to end  all  wars
Oh,
  Gb                    Cb      Abm7       E
I must have killed a million men    And now they want me
Ebm
back again
    Cb                       Db
But I ain't amarching anymore

[Chorus]
     Cb                Gb
It's always the old to lead us to the wars
Cb         Ebm     Ab
Always the young to  fall
    Cb                             Gb               Ebm
Now look at all we've won with the saber and the gun
Cb                     Db
Tell me is it worth it all?

[Verse 5]
      Gb             Cb      Gb/Bb    Db
For I flew the final mission in   the Japanese skies
Gb            Cb     Gb/Bb   Db
  Set off the mighty mushroom  roar
       Gb             Cb     Abm7
When I saw the cities burning
  E               Ebm
I knew that I was learning
     Cb                       Db
That I ain't amarching anymore

[Verse 6]
        Gb             Cb        Gb/Bb     Db
Now the labor leader's screamin' when they close the
missile plants
 Gb                  Cb     Gb/Bb Db
United Fruit screams at the Cuban shore
        Gb               Cb
Call it peace or call it treason
Abm7        E           Ebm
Call it love or call it reason
    Abm                       Db
But I  ain't amarching anymore
    Abm                       Db
No, I  ain't amarching anymore
