THE GENERAL BY GUNS N ROSES

Left right left, Left right left
We say left right, left right left

Oh my general we salute you
Defending our rights and doing the work you choose to
Well maybe its time to read between the lines
And figure out your design
And in due time we will have this war won

Watch out here he comes!

grab yourself a gun and run into the fields
using your men as human shields
fighting for yourself and no one else
against your general...against the general
ohh dying on the battle fields
he's eating your brain as his meal
fighting for yourself and no one else
against your general...against the general

you can hear the battle cry as you watch the victims shattered eyes
you can smell the blood as it flows like a river...a river that holds strong ties
we can even watch all the sorrow and see how it all began on CNN
no one could ever predict it would come to this....this hit and miss
its time to start again

here it comes!

grab yourself a gun and run into the fields
using your men as human shields
fighting for yourself and no one else
against your general...against the general
ohh dying on the battle fields
he's eating your brain as his meal
fighting for yourself and no one else
against your general...against the general

we can't fight it
we just give in
all lives taken from women and children
we can fight it
we wont give in
we can defend this crazy world which we live in

oh this wars far from won
you better grab yourself a gun
and you could run into the feilds
eatin your brain for a meal
running into the jungles
will it end? do you ever wonder?
all this fighting in this century
do you you regret that you ever met me?....

CHECKMATE BY GUNS N ROSES

Guitar Intro

All cautions made, every chance was given, no effort spared, to save what we had*
or it would take, away the light we given, once it is ours, were free from this land
dont ever expect me to turn up this late
mother fucker' in this game, its checkmate

*interlude*

as i then ran, as fast as i could, memories both friends, escaped from my hand
ive got a gun, now the bloods on my hands, everything you see is here till the end
dont ever expect me to turn up this late
mother fucker' in this game, its checkmate

*solo*

lies that ive told, lies that ive given
lies that ive sold, lies that have driven
me mad to the top of my own head
me mad to the top of my head
at night sugar, im sorry if i turn up late
well now honey, my turn, check mate

all dozens slayed, every chance, one given, dont ever spin ,just say what we had
or it would take, away the light we given, once it is ours, were free from this land
dont ever expect me to turn up this late
mother fucker' in this game, its checkmate

Outro + Solo

All Thoughts in lane (all thoughts in lane)
every chance we gave (ever chance we gave)
dont ever spare (dont ever spare)
im here till the end (checkmate)
im here till the end
im here till the end

Re: The General & Checkmate lyrics

Is there any evidence these are real lyrics to GNR songs?

Well I can't remember what forum i got them from. If anyone could find one with these that would be awesome, but The checkmate lyrics fit the clip we got. The whole thing in my opinion has Axl's writing style all over.
