[Verse}
B
Jennifer lost the war today
B
They'll find her burned and raped
C
Through it all
D
She must have wondered
B B
"What have I done?"
E A
But nobody really cares today
D E*
The world's a busy place
C D B
Guess she must have really sinned, now
B
Really sinned, now
[Chorus]
A D
I guess we're all just soldiers
E* E*
But she was only six years old
A D
Left to die by strangers
E* E*
Her family waits
A D
And if we're all just soldiers
E* E* D
Is it so wrong to be afraid?
B E A D E* C D B B
Jennifer lost the war
[Verse]
E A
Phoebe lost the war today
D E*
There must be some mistake
C D
Say it happens all the time
B B
And it's said and done
E A
And Little Miss 1565
D E*
Her soul remains unclaimed
C D B
Guess you must have really sinned, now
B
Really sinned, now
[Chorus]
A D
Morality won't help her
E* E* A
When she lies silent in a morgue
D
And all our sorrows, well, just
E* E*
Don't count at all
A D
But will the morning headlines
E* E* D
Even say that it's a shame?
B D
What are we heading for?
B
Jennifer lost the war

Seen it all before
A
Silent on the ground
E*
As he's walking away

And I wonder how many more

Everybody'll take it
