[Bm] [D]
[G]
It is exploding, [D] bomb exploding, [G]
bullets loading, [D] heroes enough to kill,
[G] but not for [D] voting,
you can't believe in war, [G] but once that gun you're toting, [D] can't even let Jordan live
[G] has bodies floating, [D] but ya, tell [Em] me over [A] and over [D] and over again [Bm] my friend, [G] you don't believe
[A] we're on the [D] eve of destruction,
[Em] [A]
[D] but don't you understand [G] what I'm trying to say, [D] and
can't you feel the fears that [G] I'm, [D] if you're having this push, [G]
there's no other way, [D] there'd
be more to say, [G] with the world in a grave, [D] take a look around ya boy, [G] it's bound to scare
ya [D] boy, and ya, tell me [G] over [A] and [D] over and over again my [Bm] friend, [G] you don't [A] believe we're
on the eve [D] of destruction,
[Em]
[A] [D] think of all the hate, [G] there is in red China, [D] and take a look
around, [G] to Selma, Alabama, [D] and you may leave here, [G] for four days in space, [D] but when you
return, [G] it's a new day in place, [D] it's the pounding of the drums, [G] the pride and disgrace,
you [D] can bury your dead, [G] but don't leave a trace, [D] hate your next door neighbor, [G] but don't
forget to say [D] grace, and tell [G] me over and [D] over and over
[Bm] again my [G] friend, you don't believe
[A] we're on the eve [D] of destruction,
[G] you don't believe [A] we're on the eve [D] of destruction.
