This is an anti-war song written in the days of nuclear oppression. I don^?t think Donovan wrote it and at some stage I came across the last verse.This verse is not on the record ( Donovan Universal Soldier 1966)

             E                      E7      A                  E
Let me tell you the story of a soldier named Dan
                                                E7    A            E
Went out to fight the good fight in South Vietnam
                                           E7                           A              E
Went out to fight for peace.----------------------liberty and all
                                            E7      A           F#M            E
Went out to fight for equality.                     Hope   let^?s go


Chorus
Em7                 E
And the war drags on


Found himself involved in a sea of blood and bones
millions without faces--without hope and without homes--
and the guns they grew louder as they made dust out of bones
--that the flesh had long since left just as the people--left their homes--

and the war  drags  on

They^?re just there to make the people free
but the way that they^?re doing it--it don^?t seem like that to me
just more blood letting and misery and tears
--that this poor country^?s known--for the last twenty years--

and the war drags on

Last night young Dan had a nightmare it seems
one that kept occurring and reoccurring in his dreams
millions of people running  --screaming and shouting loud
and right overhead was a big--mushroom cloud

and there^?s no more war
cause there^?s no more world
and my tears keep fallin down
like the rain --on to the blackened ground
