D               G      D
Guerilla Soldier born in Santo Domingo
A       D                  G          D
U.S. Marine down from his home up in Maine
A           D                G           D
Big Red Machine rolls in patrolling the jungle
A            D             G       D     Dsus4 D
All of them baking under tropical rain

[Pre-Chorus 1]
 A        Bm          Em      D
Six long months in a foreign wasteland
 A        Bm         Em        D
Scenes of terror so fresh and ripe
 A       Bm           Em       D
Found a place to come face to face
          A
Like the gutter-snipes
             D
Whether you like it or not
                            Dsus4 D
There ain't no end in sight

[Chorus]
                      G
For another thousand days will it all be over
                      Bm
And another thousand nights will the job get done
                      G
For another thousand days will it all make history
                      D       A
And another thousand nights
                 D
Will the war be won

[Verse 2]
          D                G            D
Guerilla Soldier gives a smile for the camera
A       D               G          D
U.S. Marine says hi to mom on the news
A           D                 G           D
Big Red Machine shows how to move in a straight line
A           D                  G            D
Would be a shame to see should one of them lose

[Pre-Chorus 2]
 A        Bm          Em      D
Eighteen months in a foreign wasteland
 A        Bm          Em      D
Scenes of terror still fresh and ripe
 A        Bm          Em      D
Found a place to come face to face
          A
Like the gutter-snipes
             D
Whether you like it or not
                            Dsus4 D
There ain't no end in sight

[Chorus]
                      G
For another thousand days will it all be over
                      Bm
And another thousand nights will the job get done
                      G
For another thousand days will it all make history
                      D       A
And another thousand nights
                 D
Will the war be won
