D G A
The eastern world it is explodin
D G A
Violence flares and bullets loading
D G A
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 floating
D G A D Bm
But you tell me over and over and over again my friend
G A D
Aaah you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
D G A
Don't you understand what I'm tryin to say
D G A
Can't you feel the fear that I'm feeling today
D G A
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
Aaah you don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
D G A
Ah my blood's so mad feels like coagulating
D G A
I'm sitting here just contemplating
D G A
I can't switch the truth it has no regulation
D G A
A handful of senators can't pass legislation
D G A
And marches alone can't bring integration
D G A
When human respect is disintegrating

This whole crazy world is just too frustrating

Take a look around at 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 of the drums the pride and disgrace
D G A
You can bury your dead but don't leave a trace
D G A
Hate your next-door neighbor but don't forget to say grace
D G A D Bm
But you tell me over and over and over again my friend
