Sing along ...............

[Verse 1]
D
You can't even look at the TV these days,
A
Without getting scared half to death.
A
The eyewitness news leaves you used and abused,
D
And I find myself gasping for breath.
D
There's strikes and inflation,
D
And strife between nations,
G
The world's in a hell of a mess.
G
No matter who's hurting,
D
There's one thing for certain,
A D
The whole world will blame the US.


[Chorus]
A
Oooooohhh
D
Why don't we all just get stoned,
G D
Get drunk and sing beer-drinking songs.
G
Between Brezhnev and Begin,
D
Khomeini and Reagan,
A G D
We might as well all just get stoned.


[Verse 2]
D
The Russians don't like us, and we don't like them.
A
The Israelis hate the Arabs.
A
Iran and Iraq are on each other's back,
D
And El Salvador's still up for grabs.
D
I wish they'd take Idi Amin and Khomeini
G
And Khadafi and all of the rest,
G
Tie 'em all up to a chair,
D
And make 'em stare at Yasser Arafat,
A D
‘Til he uglies the whole bunch to death.


[Chorus]
A
Oooooohhh
D
Why don't we all just get stoned,
G D
Get drunk and sing beer-drinking songs.
G
Between Brezhnev and Begin,
D
Khomeini and Reagan,
A G D
We might as well all just get stoned.

E
What about cleaning up our own backyard?


[Verse 3]
E
There's mass unemployment, and crime in the streets,
B
Inflation gets worse everyday,
B
If the commies don't take us, Reagonomics wll break us
E
We ain't got a chance either way
E
But Americans are rumored to have a good sense of humor
A
We can laugh when we're put to the test
A E
And if we all stick together, ain't a storm we can't weather
Bb E
We'll ride this one out like the rest


[Chorus]
B
Oooooohhhhhh
E
Why don't we all just get stoned,
A E
Get drunk and sing beer-drinking songs.
A
Between Brezhnev and Begin,
E
Khomeini and Reagan,
B E
We might as well all just get stoned.

A E
Ohhh ohhh ohhh stoned
