 Gm
 I live on a battlefield
 
 Eb             Bb           Gm
 Surrounded by the ruins of the love we built
 Eb              Bb
 And then destroyed between us
 Gm
 The smoke has cleared
 Eb                    Bb
 As I stumble through the rubble
 Gm             Eb
 I'm dazed, seeing double
 Bb
 And I'm truly mystified
 
 Bb        D7
 My new home is a shell hole filled
 Eb           Bb
 With tears and muddy water
 Gm
 And bits of broken heart
 Bb             D7
 All around there is desolation
 Gm           Bb
 And scenes of devastation
 D7
 Of a love been torn apart
 Gm          F Eb     D7
 I live on a battlefield
 Gm          F Eb     D7
 I 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
 Gm            Eb
 Everything that can has gone wrong
 Bb                    D7
 (I live on a battle-field)
 Bb                  Eb
 It's gonna take spine to carry on
 Bb                    D7
 (I live on a battle-field)
 Gm                 Eb
 Like a drowning man coming up for air
 Bb                      D7
 (I live on a battle-field)
 Gm                 Eb
 I'm looking for another survivor
 Bb         D7
 But I can't see one anywhere
 
 Gm      Eb                Bb
 My new home is filled with muddy water
 Gm         Eb             Bb
 All around there's bits of broken heart
 Gm       Eb          Bb
 My world is one of desolation
 Eb            Bb
 And scenes of devastation
 Eb           Bb
 There is no consolation
 D7
 For a love been torn apart
 Gm          F Eb     D7
 I live on a battlefield
 Gm          F Eb     D7
 I live on a battlefield
 Gm          F Eb     D7
 I live on a battlefield, battlefield
 Gm
 I live on a battlefield

 Capo 3rd, but I play it without - bit tougher, but you
 can get the choppy feel better that way. C here (really
 Eb) I play as a C shape.
