[Verse 1]
   Am            F  G
In Europe and   America

          Dm      Em           F   G
there's a growing feeling of hysteria.

   Am                     F      G
Conditioned to respond to all the threats

          E       Am              E
in the rhetorical speeches of the So-vi-ets.


[Chorus 1]
    C                     E
Mr. Krushchev said we will bury you,

  Am                      E
I don't subscribe to this point of view.

            Am               F       G
It would be such an ignorant thing to do

       Dm                  G        Am
if the Russians love their children too.



[Verse 2]
    Am            F     G
How can I save my little boy

     Dm   Em       F     G
from Oppenheimer's deadly toy?

      Am                F     G
There is no monopoly of common sense

   E      Am            E
on either side of the political fence.


[Chorus 2]
   C               E
We share the same biology,

  Am             E
regardless of ideology.

  Am              F     G
Believe me when I say to you,

  Dm       Em       F         G      (Am)
I hope the Russians love their children too.

[Verse 3]
      Am                F  G
There is no historical precedent,

           Dm           Em           F   G
to put the words in the mouth of the president.
        Am                 F       G
There's no such thing as a winnable war,
       E      Am      E
it's a lie we don't believe anymore

[Chorus 3]
    C                  E
Mr. Reagan says we will protect you
Am E I don't subscribe to this point of view.
Am F G Believe me when I say to you
Dm G Am I hope the Russians love their children too.

[Chorus 4]
   C               E
We share the same biology,
  Am             E
regardless of ideology.
Am                 F     G
What might save us me and you,
          Dm        Em   F      G      (Am)
is if the Russians looove  their children too.
