Intro: D Bm (2 times)

D Bm F#m A* D* Bm F#m A-Asus2-A
I do not oppose defensive wars, the trick is knowing what you’re fighting for.
Bm F#m Em A G A-Asus2-A D Bm (2x)
It’s not the fights that trouble me, it’s how it all has come to be, when will we learn, when will we see?


D Bm F#m A* D* Bm F#m A-Asus2-A
Trading goods, supporting cruel regimes, claiming that it leads to world peace.
Bm F#m Em A G A-Asus2-A D Bm (2x)
So much of hypocrisy, in our foreign policy, when will we learn, when will we see?

G A Bm F#m
Trading goods with these countries, is money spent to kill.
G A Em A -Asus2-A-Asus4-A-Asus2-A-Asus2-A
They buy weapons not free speech, while we pay the bill.


D Bm F#m A* D* Bm F#m A-Asus2-A
We opened doors believing things could change, instead we found the world re-arranged.
Bm F#m Em A G A D Bm (2x)
Autocrats and oligarchs, diplomatic foolishness. When will we learn, when will we see?

Guitar Solo: D Bm F#m A* D* Bm F#m A-Asus2-A Bm F#m Em A G A-Asus2-A D Bm (2x)

G A Bm F#m
Trading goods with these countries, is trading with our lives.
G A Em A -Asus2-A-Asus4-A-Asus2-A-Asus2-A
The world today’s so different, it’s hard to recognize.


D Bm F#m A* D* Bm F#m A-Asus2-A
We must stand with those who share our views, lend a hand to freedom, justice, and the right to choose.
Bm F#m Em A G A-Asus2-A D F#m
Turn our backs on politics, left or right dictatorships. Then we'll have learned, that’s when we'll see.

G A D Bm (repeat to end)
That's when we'll learn, that’s when we'll see.

Oh, pretty baby. (That’s when we’ll see) You don't know nothin' 'bout tyrants. (That's when we'll see)

Trading with countries like China, Russia, Venezuela. (That's when we'll see) (That’s when we’ll see)

Making treaties with Iran, and North Korea (That's when we'll see)

Nation Building in Afghanistan? gimme a break (That's when we'll see), (That’s when we’ll see).
