Cm
Dogs of war and men of hate,
with no cause, we don't disciminate
Discovery is to be disowned,
our currency is flesh and bone
D#m
Hell opened up and put on sale,
gather 'round and haggle
Cm
For hard cash, we will lie and decieve
Even our masters don't know the web we weave

Chorus:
G#
One world, it's a battleground.
Fm
One world, and we will smash it down.
Cm
One world. One world

Invisible transfers and long distance calls
Hollow laughter in marble halls
Steps have been taken, a silent uproar
Has unleashed the dogs of war
You can’t stop what has begun
Signed, sealed, they deliver oblivion
We all have our dark side to say the least
And dealing in death is the nature of the beast

Chorus:
One world, it’s a battleground
One world, and they're gonna smash it down
One world. One world

The dogs of war don’t negotiate
The dogs of war won’t capitulate
They will take and you will give
And you must die so that they may live
You can knock at any door
But wherever you go, you know
they’ve been there before
Well winners can lose and things can get strained
But whatever you change you know the dogs remain

Chorus:
G#
One world, it's a battleground
Fm7                     G7sus4
One world, are we gonna smash it down
Cm
One world. One world
