Never Again lyrics

[Intro]
Actually, I've only written two real peace songs
One before that, and this next one here
Which is a people with milder tastes, melody and word-wise

[Verse 1]
I don't know, but it seems to me
What a great world this would be
If everybody stopped their hatin'
Saw the devil and called him Satan

[Chorus]
Never again, never again
(The song's called "Never Again")
(It's done in G to E minor to B minor to D7)
No more the bugle sounds the battle cry
No more the cannons roar
No more we die

[Verse 2]
And if every man on every shore
Cast a ballot for peace or war
And when all the votes were counted
The white dove of peace was mounted

[Chorus]
Never again, never again
No more the bugle sounds the battle cry
No more the cannons roar
No more we die
[Verse 3]
And if all our boundaries melted away
From the China Sea to the USA
The flags of war at last were faded
One world at last created

[Chorus]
Never again, never again
No more the bugle sounds the battle cry
No more the cannons roar
No more we die

[Verse 2]
And if every man on every shore
Cast a ballot for peace or war
And when all the votes were counted
The white dove of peace was mounted

[Chorus]
Never again, never again
