[G]Suddenly it's [Bm]over, the [C]war is fin'lly [G]done
[C]Soldiers in the [G]desert sand, still clingin' to a [D]gun
[G]No-one is the [Bm]winner an' [C]everyone must [G]lose
[C]Suddenly the war is [G]over: [D]that's the [G]news
Suddenly celebrity is somethin' back in style
Back to runnin' tabloid for a while
Pain's almost everywhere, the whole world's got the blues
Suddenly the war is over: that's the news
That's the [D]news, that's the [G]news[C]
That's the [G]ever-[C]lovin', [G]blessed, headline [D]news
Someone's [G]missin;' in [Bm]Modesto, an' it's [C]sad about the [G]clues
[C]Suddenly the war is [G]over: [D]that's the [G]news
Suddenly the cost of war is somethin' out of sight
Lost a lotta heroes in the fight
Politicians do all the talkin': soldiers pay the dues
Suddenly the war is over, that's the news
Chorus 2:
That's the news, that's the news
That's the ever-lovin', blessed, headline news
Politicians do all the talkin': soldiers pay the dues
Suddenly the war is over, that's the news
