[Intro]

[Em] [D] [C]

[Verse 1]

[Em]Some have fought battles in [D]fields full of cattle

And [C]some have waged war out at sea

[Em]Some in militias and [D]some with malicious intent

[C]Some men just want to be

[Em]Free from oppression and [D]so their aggression

Is [C]worn like a badge on their sleeve

[Em]Some have fought battles from [D]desks in Seattle

And [C]some have waged war on the [N.C.]street

[Chorus]

Guess [Em]this is the hill I will [G]die on

I [C]woke up this morning, put my suit and tie on

Walked [Em]down to the bus that I [G]ride on

The [C]air felt so still, I guess this is the hill

I guess [Em]this is the will I will [G]write on

The [C]back of this bill with my pen as my quill

And I [Em]hope you'll still love me when [G]I'm gone

The [C]air felt so still, I guess this is the hill I will—[Am] [Em]

[Post-Chorus]

[G] [C]Mm-na, mm-na-da-da

[Em] [G] [C]Mm-mm-na, mm-na-da-da

[Verse 2]

[Em]Some fight with rifles and [D]some use the Bible

And [C]some use a shield and a knife

[Em]Some author libel which [D]sometimes goes viral

And [C]ruins an innocent life

[Em]Leaves an impression, [D]teaches no lesson

And [C]leads to regression and strife

[Em]Some fight to stifle and [D]some 'cause it's primal

And [C]some 'cause they're sure that they're right

[Chorus]

Guess [Em]this is the hill I will [G]die on

I [C]woke up this morning, put my suit and tie on

Walked [Em]down to the bus that I [G]ride on

The [C]air felt so still, I guess this is the hill

I guess [Em]this is the will I will [G]write on

The [C]back of this bill with my pen as my quill

And I [Em]hope you'll still love me when [G]I'm gone

The [C]air felt so still, I guess this is the hill I will [Am]die [Em]on

[Post-Chorus]

[G] [C]Mm-na, mm-na-da-da

[Em] [G] [C]Mm-mm-na, mm-na-na-na

[Em]Die on

[G] [C]Mm-na, mm-na-da-da

[Em] [G] [C]Mm-mm-na, mm-na-na-na

[Bridge]

[Em]Some fight with rifles and [D]some use the Bible

And [C]some use a shield and a [Em]knife [G] [C]

[Chorus]

Guess [Em]this is the hill I will [G]die on

I [C]woke up this morning, put my suit and tie on

Walked [Em]down to the bus that I [G]ride on

The [C]air felt so still, I guess this is the hill

I guess [Em]this is the will I will [G]write on

The [C]back of this bill with my pen as my quill

And I [Em]hope you'll still love me when [G]I'm gone

The [C]air felt so still, I guess this is the hill I will [Am]die [Em]on

[Post-Chorus]

[G] [C]Mm-na, mm-na-da-da

[Em] [G] [C]Mm-mm-na, mm-na-na-na

[Em]Die on

[G] [C]Mm-na, mm-na-da-da

[Em] [G] [C]Mm-mm-na, mm-na-na-na
