All the Wars from Now On - Acoustic

[00:04.22] "All the Wars from Now On"
[00:26.06] Hey, Bill, hey, Don
[00:29.49] Hey, Roger, hey, Ron
[00:32.69] Four Purple Hearts full of war stories, and local-diner black coffee
[00:39.07] They laugh, act a fool, talk some trash, shoot the bull
[00:44.80] But they're as sweet as a slice of chess pie
[00:48.53] With shrapnel still in their bodies
[00:51.52] I couldn't help but sit there
[00:54.92] And watch 'em go about
[00:57.98] And that's when it hit me
[01:01.41] They got it figured out
[01:04.16] All the wars from now on should be fought by old men
[01:10.65] Who are old enough to know better now
[01:13.85] Knowin' better than back then
[01:16.65] They'd set their weapons on the ground
[01:19.69] And crack a couple cold beers
[01:23.22] Share Polaroids of their grandkids
[01:26.52] Let the black powder smoke clear
[01:29.63] They'd play cards and shake hands
[01:32.78] Make some new friends
[01:35.73] All the wars from now on should be fought by old men
[01:50.90] Don't they usually send some poor mother's son?
[01:57.03] Youth is wasted on the young
[02:01.24] Recruit 'em right outta high school
[02:04.18] Hell, they won't know any better
[02:07.08] They'll fight, yeah, they'll die
[02:10.26] And their hometowns will cry
[02:13.50] And all that's left is some emptiness
[02:16.64] And a shaky handwritten letter
[02:19.48] And it's been that way forever
[02:22.87] All the wars from now on should be fought by old men
[02:28.96] Who are old enough to know better now
[02:32.04] Knowin' better than back then
[02:35.06] They'd set their weapons on the ground
[02:38.04] And crack a couple cold beers
[02:41.70] Share Polaroids of their grandkids
[02:44.96] Let the black powder smoke clear
[02:48.07] They'd play cards and shake hands
[02:51.21] Make some new friends
[02:54.28] All the wars from now on should be fought by old men
[03:04.85] There'd be peace on Earth every day
[03:11.11] Hey, ain't they the ones that usually start 'em anyway?
[03:19.74] All the wars from now on should be fought by old men
[03:25.72] Who are old enough to know better now
[03:28.67] Knowin' better than back then
[03:31.69] They'd set their weapons on the ground
[03:35.50] And crack a couple cold beers
[03:37.99] Share Polaroids of their grandkids
[03:41.22] Let the black powder smoke clear
[03:44.14] They'd play cards and shake hands
[03:47.78] Make some new friends
[03:53.86] All the wars from now on
[03:59.84] All the wars from now on
[04:02.80]
