Barry McGuire - Eve of destruction

The ^DEastern world ^Git is ex^A7plodin' ^DViolence flarin' and ^Gbullets ^Aloadin' You're ^Dold enough to kill, but ^Gnot for ^A7votin' You ^Ddon't believe in war, but ^Gwhat's that gun you're ^Atotin' And ^Deven the Jordan River has ^Gbodies ^Afloatin'

But you ^Dtell me, ^Gover and ^Aover and ^Dover again my ^Bmfriend, G A D (D Dsus4 D) G A Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

^DDon't you understand what I'm ^Gtryin' to ^A7say ^DCan't you feel the fear that I'm ^Gfeelin' to^Aday If the ^Dbutton is pushed there's ^Gno running a^A7way There'll be ^Dno one to save with the ^Gworld in a ^Agrave Take a ^Dlook around you boy, it's ^Gbound to scare you ^Aboy

But you ^Dtell me, ^Gover and ^Aover and ^Dover again my ^Bmfriend, G A D (D Dsus4 D) G A Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

My ^Dblood's so mad ^Gfeels like coagu^A7latin' I'm ^Dsittin' here just ^Gcontem^Aplatin' You can't ^Dtwist the truth it ^Gknows no regu^A7lation And a ^Dhandful of Senators don't ^Gpass legis^Alation ^DMarches alone can't ^Gbring inte^Agration When ^Dhuman respect is ^Gdisinte^Agratin' This ^Dwhole crazy world is just ^Gtoo frus^Atratin'

And you ^Dtell me, ^Gover and ^Aover and ^Dover again my ^Bmfriend, G A D (D Dsus4 D) G A Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.

^DThink of all the hate there ^Gis in Red ^A7China Then ^Dtake a look around to ^GSelma, Ala^Abama You ^Dmay leave here for ^Gfour days in ^Aspace But ^Dwhen you return, it's the ^Gsame old ^Aplace The ^Dpounding drums, the ^Gpride and dis^Agrace You can ^Dbury your dead, but ^Gdon't leave a ^Atrace Hate your ^Dnext door neighbor But ^Gdon't forget to ^Asay grace

But you ^Dtell me, ^Gover and ^Aover and ^Dover again my ^Bmfriend, Ah, you ^Gdon't believe we're ^Aon the eve of de^Dstruction^G. ^A Ah, you ^Gdon't believe we're ^Aon the eve of de^Dstruction
