The Eve of Destruction chords
Barry McGuire (P.F. Sloan)

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
    D                   G            A
The pounding drums, the pride and disgrace
        D                   G             A
You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace
          D         
Hate your next door neighbor
    G               A
But don't forget to say grace

        D        G        A        D             Bm
But you tell me, over and over and over again my friend,
        G                   A               D        G A
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction.
        G                   A               D         
Ah, you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
