No Man Can Find The War
TIM BUCKLEY From Goodbye And Hello, 1967
(like much of this album, capoed at the first fret)
Dm / / / F / / / G / / / Bb / / / Dm
Photographs of guns and flame Scarlet skull and distant game Bayonet and jungle grin Nightmares dreamed by bleeding men Lookouts tremble on the shore But no man can find the war
Tape recorders echo scream Orders fly like bullets stream Drums and cannons laugh aloud Whistles come from ashen shroud Leaders damn the world and roar But no man can find the war
Is the war across the sea? Is the war behind the sky? Have you each and all gone blind? Is the war inside your mind?
Humans weep at human death All the talkers lose their breath Movies paint a choas tale Singers see and poets wail All the world knows the score But no man can find the war
