[E]
[F#]
[B] The sun is burning [E] in the [B] sky
Strands of clouds [E] go slowly drifting [F#] by
In [B] the park the [G#] lazy [G#m] bees
Are [E] joining in the flowers among the trees
And [B] the sun [E] burns in [B] the sky
Now the [E] sun is in [B] the west
Little kids [E] go home to take [F#] their rest
[B] And the couples in [G#m] the park
[E] Are holding hands and waiting for the dark
And [B]
the [E] sun is in the [B]
west
Now the sun [E] is sinking [B] low
Children [E] play and know it's time [F#] to go
[B] High above a spot [G#m]
appears
A [E] little blossom blooms and then draws near
And [B] the sun [E] is sinking [B] low
Now the sun [E] has come [B] to earth
Shrouded [E] in a mushroom cloud [F#] of death
Death [B] comes in a [G#m] blinding flash
Of [C#m] hellish [E] heat and leaves a smear of ash
And the sun has come [B] to earth
Now the sun [E] has [B] disappeared
All is darkness, [E]
anger, pain [F#] and fear
[B] Twisted sightless [G#m] wrecks of men
Go [E] groping on their knees and crying pain
And [B] the [E] sun has [F#] disappeared
[N]
