Intro: :2/2: Bm | Bm | Bm | Bm Bm/D
       F#m | F#m | F#m | F#m

 Bm                                   Bm/D
   I see mushrooms, atomic mushrooms.
 F#m
   I see rockets, missiles in the sky.
 Bm
   Poor world, poor world.

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

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

Chorus:
     B       B/Bb G#m            C#m7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
        F#7
     We surely do, in pieces we do.
     B       B/Bb G#m            C#m7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
            F#7
     ‘Cause we don’t know what we are doing.

Instrumental: :2/2: Bm | Bm | Bm | Bm Bm/D
              F#m | F#m | F#m | F#m
              Bm | Bm | Bm | Bm

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

Chorus:
     B       B/Bb G#m            C#m7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
        F#7
     We surely do, in pieces we do.
     B       B/Bb G#m            C#m7
     We kill the world, kill the world,
        F#7
     We surely do, in pieces we do.
     B
     We kill the world.

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

               F      Bb
Don’t kill the world,
             F     Bb
She’s all we have,
           F  Dm
And surely is
         Gm    C
Worth to save.
              F    Bb
Don’t let her die,
              F      Bb
Fight for her trees,
          F
Pollution robs
C      F
Air to breathe.

               F      Bb
Don’t kill the world,
              F     Bb
Don’t let her down,
         F  F/E  Dm
Do not destroy
      Gm      C
Basic ground.
               F      Bb
Don’t kill the world,
             F     Bb
Our means of life,

Don’t kill the world,
C7  F
Our world.
