D Dsus4 D 4x
D G A7
The Eastern world it is explodin'
D G A
Violence flarin' and bullets loadin'
D G A7
You're old enough to kill, but not for votin'
D G A
You don't believe in war, but what's that gun you're totin'
D G A
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin'
D G A D Bm
But you tell me, over and over and over again my friend,
G A D (D Dsus4 D) G A
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.
D G A7
Don't you understand what I'm tryin' to say
D G A
Can't you feel the fear that I'm feelin' today
D G A7
If the button is pushed there's no running away
D G A
There'll be no one to save with the world in a grave
D G A
Take a look around you boy, it's bound to scare you boy
D G A D Bm
But you tell me, over and over and over again my friend,
G A D (D Dsus4 D) G A
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.
D G A7
My blood's so mad feels like coagulatin'
D G A
I'm sittin' here just contemplatin'
D G A7
You can't twist the truth it knows no regulation
D G A
And a handful of Senators don't pass legislation
D G A
Marches alone can't bring integration
D G A
When human respect is disintegratin'
D G A
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'
D G A D Bm
And you tell me, over and over and over again my friend,
G A D (D Dsus4 D) G A
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.
D G A7
Think of all the hate there is in Red China
D G A
Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama
D G A
You may leave here for four days in space
D G A
But when you return, it's the same old place
