blood and guts
----
        g
B   C   D     B   G
she was blood and guts
            c
G    B    C D B  G
more than any of us
        e
B   C   D     B   G
she was young and thin
          d
B   G     A A  B  B   C
scattered iris in the wind
           g
B   C      D     B   G
she walked proud and straight
       c
B    C D     B  B   G
with a smile on her face
          e
G  B  C   D       B  B    G
until she stepped on that mine
          d
G   B  G  A  A    B  B  C
and in an instant pulverized

        c      g        d
B   C   D  B   G   B    A
she was on her way back home
            c            g    d
B       C   D      B     G B  A
through the fields where iris grow
           c            g        d
B   B  A   G     G  G   G   B  A A
and we all heard in the valley below
    c             g        d
B A G     G   G   G B    A A
the blast and the fading echo

          c             g      d
BB    A   G     G   G   G    B A
above the mines planted long ago
        c
B   A   G
she was reaped
         d
B    G   A
with the seeds
              g
A    B    A   G
your just war sowed
