Spent two years of my life in a foreign land.
       E              D           A       E
Came home to my own wife, had a different man.
       E              D            A      E
Saw fifteen sons and fathers lying on the ground.
      E                A                 E
Just one click of my thumb, everybody's down.


Chorus:

Oh it seems that this had become a dream.
E
Life ain't just what it seems.
A
Still run by ancient schemes.
     E
And ohohoh, it shows

A
On the faces of those that know.
E
Blood flows where the money's stowed
A
Try to getcha hands on gold(?)
G                                  B
But hey, what is anybody tryin' to say?

Spent two years of my life in a foreign land,
       E              D           A           E
Came home to find my mind still stuck in the sand.
           E              D           A       E
There are things I never thought that I could do.
       E         D             A       E
I had to tell myself "Did 'em all for you."
