A E F#m
“over and out” , she said , from a hospital bed
D
“for what it’s worth it doesn’t hurt don’t cry”
A E F#m
“over and out” , he said , with a forty – five to his head
D
“the war has taken everything from me , it’s all i see”

so . . .

A
run for cover as fast as you can
E
where fighters are lovers , enemies are friends
F#m D
and pens and knives apologize for leaving you tonight

A E F#m D
leaving you tonight

A E F#m
“over and out , ” he sighed , “it seems i’ve run out of time .
D
please tell my wife i loved her more than life itself . ”
A E F#m
“over and out , ” she sang , as the telephone rang
D
“there’s no pain , no answering no more , no . ”

so . . .

A
run for cover as fast as you can
E
where fighters are lovers , enemies are friends
F#m D
and pens and knives apologize for leaving you

A
run for cover and you’ll find us there
E
to take on the anguish , make it disappear
F#m D E F# A E
when hand grenades and napalm flames are leaving you tonight

D E F# A E
let this candle burn ’til you get home
D E F# A E
never forget your face , never lose hope
D

E
to take on the anger , make it disappear ( over and out )
