Am         G 
So nice to see ya here 
C                        F 
Impolite would only be beneath us 
        Am        G 
It's been what? A half a year 
     C                          F 
Like nothing ever happened in-between us 
Am            G 
Fill me in on how you've been 
    C                F 
And I would tell you anything 
      Am      G        C    F 
You'd like to hear now 

           Am 
And we can laugh some 
    G 
Reminisce some 
         C                       F 
From the same old stories to the new ones 
         Am                  G             F 
When the nights done, I will just see you around 

                      Am        F 
But that's not what I came for, my amour 
  C                      G 
I hate to admit it but I miss the war 
Am         F          C         G 
Oh 
                    Am 
Gotta get you under fire quick 
F 
Brace for it 
    C                       G 
I'd rather be a riot than indifferent 
Am         F          C         G (stop) 
Oh 
               Am       F     C        G 
Oh, This means war,           yeeeeeaaaah 
Am          F           C           G 
This means, this means, this means, this means war 

Am            G 
I'm calm, I'm sure of it 
      C                             F 
Don't shake because I've never even rattled 
       Am               G 
It's a good school I've heard of it 
            C                             F 
You want to move away; surrender from the battle 
       Am                G 
I just wished you opened fire on me 
   C             F              Am  G     C     F 
So I can see you still worry if I   care 

            Am 
And you can laugh some 
    G 
Reminisce some 
         C                            F 
From the same old stories to the some new ones 
         Am                  G            F 
When the nights done, You'll just see me around 


                      Am        F 
But that's not what I came for, my amour 
  C                      G 
I hate to admit it but I miss the war 
Am         F          C         G
