Mafia 3 Soundtrack - Barry McGuire - Eve of Destruction chords
Start Jamming...
[D] The Eastern world, [G]
it [A] is exploding, [D] violence flaring, [A] bullets loading.
[D] You're old enough to kill, [G] but not [A] for voting.
[D] You don't believe in war, but [G] what's that gun you're [A] toting?
And [D] even the Jordan River [G] has bodies [A] floating, but [D] you tell me [G] over [A] and over [D] and over again,
my [Bm] friend.
Why [G] you don't believe [A] we're on the eve of [D] destruction?
[G]
[A] [D] Don't you understand what [G] I'm trying to say?
[D] Can't you feel the fears [G] I'm feeling [A] today?
[D] If the button is pushed, [G] there's no running [A] away.
[D] There'll be no one to save, [G] we're the world in [A] a grave.
[D] Take a look around you, boy, [G] it's bound to [A] scare you, boy.
[D] And you tell [G] me over [A] and over [D]
again, [F#] my friend.
[Bm] [G] Why you don't believe [A] we're on the eve [D] of destruction?
[A] [D]
Yeah, my blood's so mad, [G] feels like [A] coagulating.
[D] I'm sitting here [G] just [A] contemplating.
[D] I can't twist the truth, [G] it knows no [A] regulation.
[D] Handful of senators [G] don't pass [A] legislation, [E] and marches alone [G] can't [A] bring integration.
[D] When human respect [G] is [A] disintegrating.
[D] This whole crazy world [G] is just [A] too frustrating, [D] and you tell [G] me over [E] and over [D] and over again,
[Bm] my friend.
[G] Why you don't believe [A] we're on the eve [D] of destruction?
[G]
[A] [D]
Think of all the hate [G] there is in [A] red China, [D] then take a look around.
[G] De Selma, [A] Alabama, [D] you may leave here [G] for four [A] days in space, [D] but when you return, [G] it's
the same [A] old place.
[D] The pounding of the drums, [G] the pride and [A] disgrace.
[D] You can bury your dead, [G] but don't leave [A] a trace.
[D] Ain't your next door neighbor, [G] but don't [A] forget to say [D] grace.
And tell me over [A] and over [D] and over and over [Bm] again, my friend.
[G] You don't believe [A] we're on the eve of [D] destruction?
No, no, you don't believe [A] we're on the eve of [D] destruction.
