No Man Can Find the War Tim Buckley
(Beckett/Buckley)
TIM BUCKLEY
From Goodbye And Hello, 1967
(like much of this album, capoed at the first fret)
Intro:
[Dm] [/] [/] [/] [F] [/] [/] [/] [G] [/] [/] [/] [Bb] [/] [/] [/] [Dm]
[(Dm)]Photographs of guns and flame
[F]Scarlet skull and [G]distant game
[Bb]Bayonet and jungle [Dm]grin
[(Dm)]Nightmares dreamed by bleeding men
[F]Lookouts tremble on the [G]shore
[Bb]But no man can find the[Dm] war
Tape recorders echo scream
Orders fly like bullets stream
Drums and cannons laugh aloud
Whistles come from ashen shroud
Leaders damn the world and roar
But no man can find the war
[G]Is the war across the [F]sea?
[Bb]Is the war behind the [G]sky?
[E]Have you each and [G]all gone [F]blind?
[Bb]Is the war inside your [Dm]mind?
Humans weep at human death
All the talkers lose their breath
Movies paint a choas tale
Singers see and poets wail
All the world knows the score
But no man can find the war
