[Verse 1]
By: [G]jimmy buffett
1970
I didn't know we were at war
[C]I've been [D]away so [G]long
Trying to help once lost men
Dis[C]tinguish [D]right from [G]wrong
I didn't know we'd [D]killed the men
Our [C]leaders proud and [G]strong
The situation's changed my friend
I've [C]been [D]away too long

[Interlude 1]
[G]

[Verse 2]
[G]I taught my friends
How we had gained re[C]spect
for [D]every [G]man
And freedom flowed like jungle streams
While [C]peace em[D]braced the [G]land
I told them how we'd
[D]learned to change
[C]Our sword blades into [G]plows
I told them they should
learn from us
[C]What should I [D]tell them [G]now

[Interlude 2]
[G]

[Verse 3]
Chorus: 'cause [G]I
didn't know we were at war
[C]I've been [D]away so [G]long
Trying to help once lost men
Dis[C]tinguish [D]right from [G]wrong

[Verse 4]
[G]The jungle silence shut them off
[C]From civil[D]ized man[G]kind
Their nakedness was no disgrace
[D]No [C]censors cou[D]ld I fin[G]d
The population [D]lived in peace
All [C]brothers on their [G]own
And now that I have seen the mess
I [C]don't think [D]I'll go [G]home

[Interlude 4]
[G]

[Verse 5]
Chorus: 'cause [G]I
didn't know we were at war
[C]I've been awa[D]y so lon[G]g
I told them they should learn from us
I [C]think I [D]told them wrong
