The Words That Maketh Murder by PJ Harvey

Em A G F#m G
I've seen and done things I want to forget;
Em A G F#m G
I've seen soldiers fall like lumps of meat,
Em A G F#m G
Blown and shot out beyond belief.
Em A G F#m G
Arms and legs were in the trees.
Em A G F#m G
I've seen and done things I want to forget;
Em A G F#m G
coming from an unearthly place,
Em A G F#m G
Longing to see a woman's face,
Em A G F#m G
Instead of the words that gather pace,

Em
The words that maketh murder.
G
These, these, these are the words-
Dm C
The words that maketh murder.
G
These, these, these are the words-
Dm C
The words that maketh murder.
G
These, these, these are the words-
G
Murder...

Em
These, these, these are the words-
A G F#m G
The words that maketh murder.

Em A G F#m G
I've seen and done things I want to forget;
Em A G F#m G

8
I've seen a corporal whose nerves were shot
Em A G F#m G
Climbing behind the fierce, gone sun,
Em A G F#m G
I've seen flies swarming everyone,
Em A G F#m G
Soldiers fell like lumps of meat.

Em
These are the words, the words are these.
G
death lingering, stunk,
Dm C
Flies swarming everyone,
G
Over the whole summit peak,
Dm C
Flesh quivering in the heat.
G
This was something else again.
Dm C
I fear it cannot be explained.
G
The words that make, the words that make
G Dm C
Murder.

B Gm Dm C
What if I take my problem to the United Nations?
