	    D             G       A7       D                   G              A
1.	The Eastern world it is exploding, violence flaring and bullets loading,
	       D                       G       A
	You're old enough to kill, but not for voting, 
	    D                           G                              A
	You don't believe in war, but's what's that gun you're toting?
	    D                         G      A
	And even the Jordan River has bodies floating
	        D        G        A         D              Bm
	And 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.


	D                             G        A 
2.	Don't you understand what I'm trying 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
	And 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.
	
	
	   D                    G         A7      D                G          A
3.	My blood's so mad feels like coagulatin, I'm sitting here just contemplatin.
	      D                        G            A             D
	I can't twist the truth it knows no regulation, and a handful of Senators 
	      G         A
	don't pass legislation.
	D                   G         A             D                G      A
	Marches alone can't bring integration, 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           G     A
	Ah, you don't believe we're on the Eve of Destruction.

4.	Think of all the hate there is in Red China, then take a look around to Selma,
	   A     D                      G            A          D
	Alabama. You may leave here for four days in space, But when you return,
	         G        A          D                   G            A
	it's the same old place. The pounding drums, the pride and disgrace,
 	        D                         G       A      D        
	you can bury your dead, but don't leave a trace. Hate your next door neighbor,
	    G               A
	but don't forget to say grace.
	    D        G        A         D              Bm
	And 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.
