Intro: :2/2: Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm Gm/Bb
       Dm | Dm | Dm | Dm

 Gm                                   Gm/Bb
   I see mushrooms, atomic mushrooms.
 Dm
   I see rockets, missiles in the sky.
 Gm
   Poor world, poor world.

Gm
Concrete’s rising up
Where yesterday was park,
    Dm
You heard the Robin’s song.
Gm
Heavy tractor runs
Where air was clean and cool,
     Dm
Make money burning fuel.
Eb
Where will this lead to?
Cm
What is this good for?
Gm
Poor world,
Poor world.

Gm
Fishes doomed to die
As people live close by
    Dm
And oak tree falls with moan.
Gm
Parking lots will come
Where flower fields were bright
   Dm
As junkyard covers sight.
Eb
Where will this lead to?
Cm
What is this good for?
D    D/C   D/Bb
Poor world is
D/A D/G D/F#
Hurting bad,
D    D/C   D/Bb
Poor world is
D/A    D/G D/F#
Doomed to die.

Chorus:
     G       G/F# Em             Am7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
        D7
     We surely do, in pieces we do.
     G       G/F# Em             Am7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
            D7
     ‘Cause we don’t know what we are doing.

Instrumental: :2/2: Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm Gm/Bb

              Gm | Gm | Gm | Gm

Gm
Promenades must go,
So cars can drive in row,
    Dm
New factory towers tall.
Gm
Farmhouse had to fall,
No flowers in the air,
   Dm
Pollution everywhere.
Eb
Where will this lead to?
    Cm
And what is this good for?
D    D/C   D/Bb
Poor world is
D/A D/G D/F#
Hurting bad,
D    D/C   D/Bb
Poor world is
D/A    D/G D/F#
Doomed to die.

Chorus:
     G       G/F# Em             Am7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
        D7
     We surely do, in pieces we do.
     G       G/F# Em             Am7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
        D7
     We surely do, in pieces we do.
     G
     We kill the world.

Don’t kill the world,
Don’t let her down,
Do not destroy
Basic ground.

Our means of life,

Lend ear to nature’s cry.

               Db     Gb
Don’t kill the world,
             Db    Gb
She’s all we have,
           Db Bbm
And surely is
         Ebm   Ab
Worth to save.
              Db   Gb
Don’t let her die,
              Db     Gb
Fight for her trees,
          Db
Pollution robs
Ab     Db
Air to breathe.

Don’t kill the world,

Our world.
