      [Verse 1]
   Dm                       F
I'll see you on Sunday just after the war
      Gm                       F
We'll hang up our bruised old arms on the wall
   Dm                        Gm                     A                     Dm
so check all your armor and guns at the door we'll drink to the end of it all
      Bb             Am        Gm                   F      Cm      Dm
we'll check all our armor and guns at the door on Sunday after the war

      Dm                        F
we'll drown it in brandy, we'll drown it in wine
    Gm                          F
when all of the ships have laid anchor ashore
Dm                          Gm
I'll pay for your sorrow if you'll pay for mine
           A                     Dm
when the ships have laid anchor ashore
     Bb             D7       Gm        Edim         F      Cm       Dm
I'll pay for your sorrow if you'll pay for mine on Sunday after the war


[Chorus]
Bb             D7         Gm
after the war, after the war,
        Edim             F     Cm       Dm
all the bells will be ringing after the war
Bb             Bb
after the war, after the war,
   F            A     Dm
oh nothing will be as before
    G                    Bb
on Sunday just after the war


[Verse 2]
 Dm                     F
I'll see you on Sunday just after the war
Gm                           F
we'll wipe all the mud & the blood from our boots
Dm                       Gm
the grunts & the brass, volunteers & recruits
      A                  Dm
will carry their burdens no more
        Bb               D7           Gm            Edim
they'll sell off their burdens at the old surplus store
     F      Cm      Dm
on Sunday after the war

 Dm                         F
I'll try to get used to my house & my bed
         Gm                       F
when the flags have been folded & put in the drawer
Dm                        Gm
I'll try to forget what I got in my head
   A                     Dm
on Sunday just after the war
          Bb               D7       Gm       Edim
when the flags have been folded & put in the drawer
    F      Cm       Dm
on Sunday after the war


[Chorus]
Bb             D7         Gm
after the war, after the war,
        Edim             F     Cm       Dm
all the bells will be ringing after the war
Bb             Bb
after the war, after the war,
   F            A     Dm
oh nothing will be as before
    G                    Bb
on Sunday just after the war


[Verse 3]
Dm                        F
the meadow is heavy with drink from our veins
Gm                           F
& some mother's son ain't no boy anymore
Dm                   Gm
I swear I won't even try to explain
      A                   Dm
how meadows & fingers are stained
        Bb        D7          Gm       Edim7
if you ask me I swear I won't try to explain
     F      Cm      Dm
on Sunday after the war

 Dm                        F
so I'll see you on Sunday just after the war
       Gm                  F
we'll cast our remembrance down in the grave
Dm                       Gm
where so many others who no one could save
     A                       Dm
are smothered in brothers as brave
       Bb          D7      Gm            Edim
we'll cast our remembrance down in the grave
    F      Cm        Dm
on Sunday after the war


[Chorus]
Bb             D7         Gm
after the war, after the war,
         Edim     F       Cm         Dm
they're always recruiting after the war
Bb             Bb
after the war, after the war,
  F             A     Dm     Dm/C
will everything be as before
   G                      Bb   C   D
on Sunday just after the war
