[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
The Deastern worldG it is exAplodin'
D Violence flarin',G bullets loaAdin'
You're Dold enough to killG but not for Avotin'
You Ddon't believe in war, but Gwhat's that gun you're Atotin'
And Deven the Jordan river hasG bodies Afloatin'
[Chorus]
But youD tell me oGver and oAver and oDver again my friend
Bm Ah, you Gdon't believe we're Aon the eve of desDtruction G A
[Verse 2]
DDon't you understand, what I'mG trying to Asay?
And Dcan't you feel the fears I'mG feeling today? A
If the Dbutton is pushed, there's noG running away A
There'll be Dno one to save with the Gworld in a grave A
Take a Dlook around you, boy, it's Gbound to scare you, boy A
[Chorus]
And youD tell me oGver and oAver and oDver again my Bmfriend
Ah, you Gdon't believe we're Aon the eve of desDtruction
[Verse 3]
G A D Yeah, my Dblood's so mad, feels Glike coaguAlatin'
I'mD sittin' here, justG contemAplatin'
ID can't twist the truth, it Gknows no regulaAtion
DHandful of Senators don't Gpass legisAlation,
And Dmarches alone can't Gbring integAration
When Dhuman respect is GdisinteAgratin'
This Dwhole crazy world is Gjust too frusAtratin'
[Chorus]
And youD tell me oGver and oAver and oDver again my friend
Bm Ah, you Gdon't believe we're Aon the eve of desDtruction G A D
[Verse 4]
DThink of all the hate there Gis in Red ChiAna
Then Dtake a look around to GSelma, AlaAbama!
Ah, Dyou may leave here, for Gfour days in Aspace
But Dwhen you return, it's the Gsame old place A
The Dpoundin' of the drums, the Gpride and disgrace A
You can Dbury your dead, but Gdon't leave a trace A
Hate your Dnextdoorneighbour, but Gdon't forget to Asay grace
[Chorus]
AndD tell me Gover and oAver and oDver and over againBm my friend
You Gdon't believe we're Aon the eve of desDtruction
[Outro]
No no you Gdon't believe we're Aon the eve of desDtruction G D
