Album: Red Skies Over Paradise
{intro}
Am F Em Am (repeat)
{verse}
Am
The map has gone
F Em Am
It's burning in the afternoon
Am F
The smell's so strong
Em Am F Em
No chance to waft away
Am F Em Am F Em
Gold medallions for the proud men in khaki
Am F Em
Battalions of strangers
Am F Em
Battalions of strangers
{chorus}
Dm E
No one wants to lead the way
Dm E
Be the first death of the day
Dm E
Leave his family behind
Dm E
It must all be in the minds of
Am F Em
Battalions of strangers ...
Am F Em
Battalions of strangers ...
Am F Em
Battalions of strangers ...
Am F Em
Battalions of strangers ...
{verse}
The sound of guns has given way to childrens cries
The war has come home
The black smoke and the hordes of flies
Gold medallions for the citizens who stand and wait
Battalions of strangers
Battalions of strangers
{chorus}
No one wants to lead the way...
{verse}
The voice of calm from Moscow to the Pentagon
Sound the alarm and try to back the better one
Gold medallions for the men who must negotiate
Battalions of strangers
Battalions of strangers
Battalions of strangers
Battalions of strangers
... Out.

Transcript by Tilman Heckel <heckel@interactiv.de>
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official FISCHER Z tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
