The War Is Over Chords & Tabs
THE WAR IS OVER by KELLY CLARKSON
VERSE 1
F# C#
I watch the days rush by me like a river
D# B
I shouldn’t wait but I’m scared to touch the water
F# C#
I let the phone ring, why won’t you believe me
D# B
I wait for silence, takes a lot not to answer
CHORUS 1
F# C# D# B
All I have to say is you don’t deserve me, you don’t deserve me
F# C# D# B
I’m finally walking away ‘cause you don’t deserve me me and you’re not worthy
F# C# D# B
And I won’t let you pull me in, cause I know you’re gonna win, but the war is over
F# C# D# B
And I won’t fight you anymore, I’ve never felt so sure cause the war is over

(same as verse 1)
I used to let you paint a pretty picture
You got me caught up with your “you’re my girl forever”
So I’d forgive you, it felt good when you’d hold me
Yeah you owned me, now you wish you had really known me
(same as chorus 1)
All I have to say is you don’t deserve me, you don’t deserve me
I’m finally walking away ‘cause you only hurt me and you’re not worthy
And I won’t let you pull me in, cause I know you’re gonna win
But the war is over
And I won’t fight you anymore, I’ve never been so sure
Cause the war is over
BRIDGE
F# C# D# B
This is not my surrender, I’m not running for cover
F# C# D# B
I’m right here, I know you see me, but your words no longer defeat me
F# C# D# B
In the night, when you’re lonely, you remember how much you miss me
F# C# D# B
So you call but I swear, you can try a million times, you’ll get the same message
(same as chorus 1)
All I have to say is you don’t deserve me, you don’t deserve me
I’m finally walking away ‘cause you only hurt me and you’re not worthy
And I won’t let you pull me in, because I know you’re gonna win
But the war is over, the war is over
So yeah. Basic, basic song. It’s the same 4 chords all the way though Just
change up the strumming a bit or add in other instruments to make it more interesting! :D
