[Verse 1]
Oh can you[D] tell [Dsus4]me, oh[D] how the joy[Dsus4][D]
Passed from his[A] childhood, that's not my[D] boy[Dsus4][D]
I see he's[D] finishe[Dsus4]d, he'[D]s run his race[Dsus4][D]
We're not his[A] family that's not his[D] face[Dsus4][D]
We taught him[D] wel[Dsus4]l and [D]from his youth[Dsus4][D]
He knew he[A] always must know the[D] truth[Dsus4][D]
He left his[D] countr[Dsus4]y to g[D]o to war[Dsus4][D]
When he re[A]turned, he'd found we closed the[D] door[Dsus4][D]
[Chorus]
But[Bb] we never[C] dreamed when he was[D] leaving
That[Bb] he would taste the[C] flowers of[D] evil[A]
[Instrumental]
[D] [Dsus4] [D]
[D] [Dsus4] [D]
[Verse 2]
I know his[D] habi[Dsus4]t was [D]not so bad[Dsus4][D]
When for fifty[A] dollars it could be[D] had[Dsus4][D]
But now he's[D] hom[Dsus4]e to h[D]is promised land[Dsus4][D]
And what he[A] needs got to cost a[D] Grand[Dsus4][D]
When he'd been[D] hom[Dsus4]e for [D]six month's time[Dsus4][D]
My son he[A] told me, he'd made up his[D] mind[Dsus4][D]
He's re-en[D]listed[Dsus4] for t[D]hree years more[Dsus4][D]
It's too ex[A]pensive to stop this[D] war[Dsus4][D]
[Chorus]
But[Bb] we never[C] dreamed when he was[D] leaving
That[Bb] he would taste the[C] flowers of[D] evil[A]

[Outro]
Oh can you[D] tell m[Dsus4]e, oh [D]how the joy[Dsus4][D]
Passed from his[A] childhood, that's not my[D] boy[Dsus4][D]
He's re-en[D]liste[Dsus4]d for [D]three years more[Dsus4][D]
Is the price of[A] peace worth the price of[D] war?[Dsus4][D]
Is the price of[A] peace worth the price of[D] war?[Dsus4][D]
Is the price of[A] peace worth the price of[D] war?[Dsus4][D]
