[B]
[Abm] [B]
[Abm] [B]
Jump down the shelter to get away
The boys are cocking at their guns
[Abm] Tell us General, [B] is it party time?
If it is, can we all come?
[E] Don't think that we [Gb] don't know
[E] Don't think that we're not [Gb] trying now
[E] Don't think we move too [Gb] slow
It's [E] no use after [Gb] crying
Saying it's our [Abm] mistake
It's [Gb]
our [B] mistake
[Db]
It's our [Abm] mistake
[B]
[Abm]
After all the laughter [B] has died away
[Abm] And all the boys have [B] had their fun
[Abm] No surface noise, no, not [B] much to say
[Abm] They got the bad [B] guys on the run
[E] Don't try to say you're [Gb] sorry
[E] Don't say he drew his [Gb] gun
They've [E] gone and grabbed old [Gb] Lonnie
[E] He's not the only [Gb] one
Saying it's our [Abm] mistake
[Gb]
It's our [B] mistake
[Db]
It's our mistake
[Abm] [B]
It's our mistake
[Abm] Tell us Commander, [B] what do you think?
[Abm] We know that you loved [B] all that hour
[Abm] Is it on them?
[B] Are we on the brink?
[Abm] We should all flow in [B] the tower
[E] We'll not fade out too [Gb] soon
[E] Not in this finest [Gb] hour
[E] We'll tell your favorite [Gb] tune
We'll [E] send a cotton [Gb] flower
Saying it's our [Abm] mistake
It's [B]
