From: [email protected] (Steven Kaeser) EVE OF DESTRUCTION (Barry McGuire)
[Verse] DGA7DGA The Eastern world it is explodin', violence flarin' and bullets loadin', DGA You're old enough to kill, but not for votin', DGA You don't believe in war, but's what's that gun you're totin'? DGA And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin'
[Chorus] DGADBm But you tell me, over and over and over again my friend, GADGA Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction.
[Verse] DGADGA Don't you understand what I'm tryin' to say? Can't you feel the fear that I'm feelin' today? DGA If the button is pushed there's no running away, DGA There'll be no one to save with the world in a grave. DGA Take a look around you boy, it's bound to scare you boy,
[Chorus] DGADBm But you tell me, over and over and over again my friend, GADGA Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction.
[Verse] DGA7DGA My blood's so mad feels like coagulatin', I'm sittin' here just contemplatin' DGADGA You can't twist the truth it knows no regulation, and a handful of Senators don't pass legislation. DGADGA Marches alone can't bring integration, when human respect is disintegratin'. DGA This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'.
[Chorus] DGADBm But you tell me, over and over and over again my friend, GADGA Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction.
[Verse] DGA7DGA Think of all the hate there is in Red China, then take a look around to Selma, Alabama! DGADGA You may leave here for four days in space, But when you return, it's the same old place. DGADGA The pounding drums, the pride and disgrace, you can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace, DGA Hate your next door neighbor, but don't forget to say grace.
[Chorus] DGADBm But you tell me, over and over and over again my friend, GADGA Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction.
