Em
Wait until the war is over
D
And we're both a little older
Em
The unknown soldier

Chorus:
Am
Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
D
Unborn, living
Living, dead
 F        C         D        Am
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

A                        G
And it's all over for the unknown soldier
A                    G
It's all over for the unknown soldier

Make a grave for the unknown soldier
Nestled in your hollow shoulder
The unknown soldier

Chorus:
Breakfast where the news is read
Television, children fed
Bullet strikes
the helmet's head

And it's all over
The war is over
It's all over
War is over

It's all over, baby!
All over, baby!
Oh all right, yeah!
All over, yeah ha ha!
All over!
All over, baby!
Oh, oh yeah!
All over
All over
Yeah
