Intro: :2/2: Bbm | Bbm | Bbm | Bbm Bbm/C#
       Fm | Fm | Fm | Fm

 Bbm                                  Bbm/C#
   I see mushrooms, atomic mushrooms.
 Fm
   I see rockets, missiles in the sky.
 Bbm
   Poor world, poor world.

Bbm
Concrete’s rising up
Where yesterday was park,
    Fm
You heard the Robin’s song.
Bbm
Heavy tractor runs
Where air was clean and cool,
     Fm
Make money burning fuel.
F#
Where will this lead to?
D#m
What is this good for?
Bbm
Poor world,
Poor world.

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

Chorus:
     Bb      Bb/A Gm             Cm7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
        F7
     We surely do, in pieces we do.
     Bb      Bb/A Gm             Cm7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
            F7
     ‘Cause we don’t know what we are doing.

              Bbm | Bbm | Bbm | Bbm

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

Doomed to die.

     We surely do, in pieces we do.
     Bb      Bb/A Gm             Cm7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
        F7
     We surely do, in pieces we do.

     We kill the world.

Don’t kill the world,
Don’t let her down,
Do not destroy
Basic ground.
               E      A
Don’t kill the world,
             E     A
Our means of life,
            E  B     E
Lend ear to nature’s cry.

               E      A
Don’t kill the world,
             E     A
She’s all we have,
           E  C#m
And surely is
         F#m   B
Worth to save.
              E    A
Don’t let her die,
              E      A
Fight for her trees,
          E
Pollution robs
B      E
Air to breathe.

               E      A
Don’t kill the world,

Don’t let her down,

Do not destroy

Basic ground.

Our means of life,

Don’t kill the world,
B7  E
Our world.
