            EmI live on a battlefield
C                 G            EmSurrounded by the ruins of the love we built
C                  GAnd then destroyed between us
    EmThe smoke has cleared
     C                   G  As I stumble through the rubble
    Em            CI'm dazed, seeing double
              GAnd I'm truly mystified

       G         B7My new home is a shell hole filled
     Em        GWith tears and muddy water
    EmAnd bits of broken heart
    G               B7All around there is desolation
    Em        GAnd scenes of devastation
     B7Of a love been torn apart
            Em             D C     B7I live on a battlefield
            Em             D C     B7I live on a battlefield


I live on a battlefield
The one where not one single drop of blood has spilled
Is no less horrifying
Sweet memories, memories
Of a bygone situation
Now shattered lord and battered
Lie scattered all around

My new home is a shell hole filled
With tears and muddy water
Yes and bits of broken heart
All around there is desolation
And scenes of devastation
Of a love been torn apart
I live on a battlefield
I live on a battlefield

Em                  CEverything that can has gone wrong
G                  B7(I live on a battlefield)
Em                       CIt's gonna take spine to carry on
G                  B7(I live on a battlefield)
Em                         CLike a drowning man coming up for air
G                  B7(I live on a battlefield)
Em                      CI'm looking for another survivor
G                      B7But I can't see one anywhere

       Em      C           GMy new home is filled with muddy water
Em                 C              GAll around there's bits of broken heart
Em          C      GMy world is one of desolation
    C             GAnd scenes of devastation
      C          GThere is no consolation
B7For a love been torn apart
            Em             D C     B7    I live on a battlefield
            Em             D C     B7 I live on a battlefield
            Em             D C     B7 I live on a battlefield, battlefield
            Em           I live on a battlefield
