The Pogues - Eve of Destruction: Guitar Chords

D                 G         A
The eastern world, it is exploding
 D               G         A
Violence flarin', bullets loadin'
    D                    G          A
You're old enough to kill, not for votin'
         D                          G
And you don't believe in war, but what's
                 A
that gun you're totin'
    D                    G     A
And even the Jordan River has bodies floatin'

Chorus:
         D      G        A        D
Now you tell me over and over and over again,
     Bm
my friend
     G              A                      D
You don't believe we're on the eve of destruction

Don't you understand what I'm tryin' to say
Don't you feel the fears I'm feelin' today?
If the button is pushed, there's no runnin' away
There'll be no one to save with
the world in a grave
[Take a look around you, boy,
it's bound to scare you, boy]

Chorus:
And you tell me over and over and over again,
my friend
You don't believe we're on the eve of destruction

So mad, like coagulatin',
I'm sitting here just contemplatin'
I can't twist the truth, it knows no regulation
A handful of senators don't pass legislation
And marches alone can't bring integration
When human respect is disintegration
This whole crazy world is just too frustratin'

Chorus:
Now you tell me over and over and over again,
my friend
You don't believe we're on the eve of destruction

Think of all the hate there is in Red China
Then take a look around in Selma, Alabama
You may leave here for four days in space
When you return, it's the same old place

The poundin' of the drums, the pride and disgrace
You can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace
Hate your next-door neighbor, but don't
forget to say grace

Chorus:
Over and over and over again, my friend
You don't believe we're on the eve of destruction
