Rise Against - Hero Of War / Guitar Tutorial / Tabs + Chords

[Verse 1] He said, "Son, have you seen the world? Well, what would you say, if I said that you could? Just carry this gun, you'll even get paid" I said, "That sounds pretty good" Black leather boots, spit-shined so bright They cut off my hair, but it looks alright We marched and we sang, we all became friends As we learned how to fight [Chorus 1] A hero of war Yeah, that's what I'll be And when I come home They'll be damn proud of me I'll carry this flag To the grave if I must 'Cause it's a flag that I love And a flag that I trust [Verse 2] I kicked in the door, I yelled my commands The children, they cried, but I got my man We took him away, a bag over his face From his family and his friends They took off his clothes, they pissed in his hands I told them to stop, but then I joined in We beat him with guns, and batons not just once But again and again [Chorus 1] A hero of war Yeah, that's what I'll be And when I come home They'll be damn proud of me I'll carry this flag To the grave if I must 'Cause it's a flag that I love And a flag that I trust [Verse 3] She walked through bullets and haze I asked her to stop, I begged her to stay But she pressed on, so I lifted my gun And I fired away And the shells jumped through the smoke And into the sand that the blood now had soaked She collapsed with a flag in her hand A flag white as snow [Chorus 2] A hero of war Is that what they see? Just medals and scars So damn proud of me And I brought home that flag Now it gathers dust But it's a flag that I love It's the only flag I trust [Outro] He said, "Son Have you seen the world? Well, what would you say If I said that you could?" #RiseAgainst #HeroOfWar
