Wasted Life Chords

(ver. 1)
Stiff Little Fingers
INTRO: A

VERSE 1:
A                                                         G
I could be a soldier, go out there and fight to save this land
A                                          G
Be a people's soldier, paramilitary gun in hand
A                                                    G
I won't be a soldier, I won't take no orders from no one
A                                                    G
Stuff their f**kin' armies, killing isn't my idea of fun

CHORUS:
               E        A                E        A    
And they wanna waste my life, they wanna waste my time 
           E        A                G      D   A
They wanna waste my life and they've stolen it away

VERSE 2:
A                                                   G
I could be a hero, live and die for their important cause
A                                            G
A united nation or an independent state with laws
    A                                                        G
And rules and regulations that merely cause disturbances and wars
    A                                                            G
And that's what I have got now all thanks to the freedom seeking hoards

CHORUS:
               E        A                E        A    
And they wanna waste my life, they wanna waste my time 
           E        A                G      D   A
They wanna waste my life and they've stolen it away

BRIDGE:
F#               E              F#                     E
I'm not gonna be taken in, they said if I don't join I just can't win
     F#                    E                F#                        G#
I've heard that story many times before and every time I've thrown it out the door

BREAK:   C# > D > D# > E  A    E  A    E  A     G D A

VERSE 3:
A                                                            G
Still they come up to me, with a different name and same old face
A                                                      G
I can see the connection with another time and another place
        A                                                                      G
No they ain't blond haired or blue eyed but they think that they're the master race
        A                                                                 G
They're nothing but blind fascists, brought up to hate and given lives to waste

CHORUS:
               E        A                E        A    
And they wanna waste my life, they wanna waste my time 
           E        A                G      D   A
They wanna waste my life and they've stolen it away, what they wanna do

CHORUS:
           E        A                E        A    
They wanna waste my life, they wanna waste my time 
           E        A                G      D   A
They wanna waste my life and they've stolen it away
