[Verse]
G7 Dm
General Robert A Lee, is sitting on a stallion right in front of me
G7
The town says they’re gonna take the old statue down
Dm
So, White Supremacists come
G7 Dm
Snaking through the streets like something out of Genesis
F G7
I can’t believe my eyes, neither side is gonna back down
[Chorus]
A# A7
When the war you’re fighting for
Dm G7 A#
Is born out of something disgraceful
A7 Dm G7
You ain’t fighting honourably, General Lee
[Verse]
Dm G7 Dm
Friday night out on parade with their citronella tiki torches
G7
Townspeople left their porches to block the way
Dm
And you could hear the hate in the words they shout
G7 Dm
The camera caught their faces ‘fore the torch blew out
F G7
You should have worn the hood, you’re up to no good, tomorrow’s judgement day
[Chorus]
A# A7
When the war you’re fighting for
Dm G7 A#
Is born out of something disgraceful
A7 Dm G7
You ain’t fighting honourably, General Lee
[Instrumental]
Dm G7 Dm G7
[Verse]
Dm
The Saturday protest got cancelled
G7
D helicopter crashed, it was too hot to handle
Dm G7
Two cops down, skirmishes broke ‘round town
Dm G7 Dm
Lives blown out like a candle, the President must love a scandal
F G7
He wouldn’t take a side, though people died, and Heather Heyer got mowed down
[Chorus]
A# A7
When the war you’re fighting for
Dm G7 A#
Is born out of something disgraceful
A7 Dm G7
You ain’t fighting honourably, General Lee
[Bridge]
A# A7
For a hundred and fifty years
Dm G7
We’ve come so far, but you haven’t moved an inch
A# A7
We will not flinch, there’s no one here to lynch
[Chorus]
A# A7
When the war you’re fighting for
Dm G7 A#
Is born out of something disgraceful
A7 Dm G7
You ain’t fighting honourably, General Lee
[Outro]
G7
