C D
If it comes to war
G (Bm/F#) Em
I don't think I'll believe it
Am D G C G
I'll spend the day reading all the crazy news
C D
I'll tell myself "this is important"
G (Bm/F#) Em
scrolling endlessly
Am D
And reach the conclusion that I haven't read
G Am Bm
a single useful thing
C D
If it comes to war
G (Bm/F#) Em
I'll probably call my father
Am D G C G
He lives far away but he'll know what to do
C D
We'll grab the family, bring them to the west,
G (Bm/F#) Em
Damn this song, it's making me depressed
Am D
I feel like a dumbass, running away
G (Bm/F#) Em
I wish I had something better to say
C D G C G
"I don't believe it can ever happen to me"
C D
–said every fool who sold his soul
G Bm/F# Em
thinking that he's free
G/D C G
Look at us now, addicted and lied to
G Bm/F# Em
arguing with trolls is a loser's battle
C D
We used to be connected, now we're apart
G Bm/F# Em
we got so stupid we think we're smart
C D G C G
"I don't believe it can ever happen to me"
If it comes to war
I don't think I'll be ready
the first step of grief will hit me like a ton of bricks
I'll tell myself "That's ridiculous,
they would never do that"
I'll probably deny it
and justify it
for a day or two
If it comes to war
It's maybe the wrong question
There’s already war and there's people there like me
Some of them fight back, some of them flee
And some didn't make it
I wonder if it's worth it,
killing and dying
for what kind of idea?
[chorus]
"I don't believe that it can ever happen to me"
—said every fool who sold his soul
thinking that he's free
Look at us now, addicted and lied to
arguing with trolls is a loser's battle
We **could** be connected, now we're apart
we've filled our brain and emptied our heart
"I don't believe that it can ever happen to me"
If it comes to war
I don't think I'll believe it
I'll spend the day reading all the crazy news
I'll tell myself "this is important"
scrolling endlessly
And reach the conclusion that I haven't read
a single useful thing
If it comes to war
I'll probably call my father
He lives far away but he'll know what to do
We'll grab the family, bring them to the west,
F this song, it's making me depressed
I feel like a dumbass, running away
I wish I had something better to say
[chorus]
"I don't believe that it can ever happen to me"
—said every fool who sold his soul
thinking that he's free
Look at us now, addicted and lied to
arguing with trolls is a loser's battle
We used to be connected, now we're apart
we got so stupid we think we're smart
"I don't believe that it can ever happen to me"
