[Intro]
C C
C C
[Verse 1]
C
I don't do it for the money
F
I don't do it for the fame
G
I don't do it so I can see the bright lights
C
Spell out my name
F G
But I'd be lyin' if I said I didn't wanna hear my songs
Am
On a jukebox in a jukebox kinda bar
F
Guess I'm just another soldier
G C
Fightin' a war of art
[Verse 2]
C
And I love the pretty girls and how they sway
F
In rhythm when I play
G
And I'll take a free cold beer everytime
C
They set one on a stage
F G
And if that was the only reason, why I do it
Am
Then why I do it wouldn't get me very far
F
I guess you can't pick your battles
G C
When you fight the war of art
[Chorus]
F Am G F Am G
It's hard to shine in a sky full of stars
F Am G
Still be who you are
C Am F G
When you fight the war of art
[Verse 3]
C
If a bullet was a song, and this guitar was a gun
F
I'd knock 'em dead
G
Most nights it feels like I'm the one
C
Up here bleedin' red
F G
And I ain't tryin' to hurt nobody, I'm just hopin' that my broken
Am
Puts some hope, in another broken heart
F
Yeah, I'm just another soldier
G C
Fightin' a war of art
[Chorus]
F Am G F Am G
It's hard to shine in a sky full of stars
F Am G
Still be who you are
C
When you fight the war of art
[Outro]
C
I don't do it for the money
F
I don't do it for the fame
