The eagle and [D] the pair of [E] people living in fear of them spending [D] nuclear [E] warfare.
Hope as [Am] a matter of belief it earned plenty people [G] don't care whether [E] it's the men and
the women, the children, the girls, the fur, the old [D] daughter, [E] the human race of our survival.
[D] [B] For those of us out here, [Am] them life already coming like a nightmare.
And you [Em] can see it everywhere, the famine and the fear, [E] the doubt and the trouble, desperation
in the skin.
And you [Am] can see it all around, the massacre is upon, the [A] dead bodies [G] all around, [A] the atrocities
[E] are found, missing persons can't be found, the theaters get destroyed, new [Em] towns are quickly found.
