[Intro]
Em Am Em
Em
[Verse]
Em C
Are you a man of peace
G D
Or a man of holy war?
Em C
Too many sides to you
G D
Don’t know which anymore
Em C
So many full of life
G D
But also filled with pain
Em C
Don’t know just how many
G D
Will live to breathe again
Em C
A life that’s made to breathe
G D
Destruction or defense
Em C
A mind that’s vain corruption
G D
Bad or good intent
Em C
A wolf in sheep’s clothing
G D
Or saintly or sinner
Em C
Or some that would believe
G D
A holy war winner
Em C
They fire off many shots
G D
And many parting blows
Em C
Their actions beyond a reasoning
G D
Only God would know
Em C
And as he lies in heaven
G D
Or it could be in hell
Em C
I feel he’s somewhere here
G D
Or looking from below
Am C D
But I don’t know, I don’t know
[Chorus]
Em
Please tell me now what life is
C G D
Please tell me now what love is
Em
Well, tell me now what war is
Am C D
Again, tell me what life is
[Verse 2]
Em C G D
More pain and misery in the history of mankind
Em C G D
Sometimes it seems more like the blind leading the blind
Em C G D
It brings upon us more of famine, death and war
Em C G D
You know religion has a lot to answer for
[Chorus 2]
Em
Please tell me now what life is
C G D
Please tell me now what love is
Em
Well, tell me now what war is
Am C D
Again, tell me what life is
[Verse 3]
Em C G D
And as they search to find the bodies in the sand
Em C G D
They find its ashes that are scattered across the land
Em C G D
And as the spirits seem to whistle on the wind
Em C G D
A shot is fired somewhere another war begins
Em C G D
And all because of it you’d think that we would learn
Em C G D
But still the body count the city fires burn
Em C G D
Somewhere there’s someone dying in a foreign land
Em C G D
Meanwhile the world is crying stupidity of man
Am
Tell me why?
C
Tell me why?
[Chorus 3]
Em
Please tell me now what life is
C G D
Please tell me now what love is
Em
Well, tell me now what war is
Am C D
Again, tell me what life is
Em
Please tell me now what life is
C G D
Please tell me now what love is
Em
Well, tell me now what war is
Am C D
Again, tell me what life is
[Bridge]

For the greater good of God

For the greater good of God
Em
For the greater good of God

For the greater good of God
Am C D
For the greater good of God

[Coda]
Em C
He gave his life for us
G D
He fell upon the cross
Em C
To die for all of those
G D
Who never mourn his loss
Em C
It wasn’t meant for us
G D
To feel the pain again
Am
Tell me why?
C D Em
Tell me why?
