D#mD#m
I want to be happy I want to be gay
D#mA#m
I want to be normal in every way
D#mA#m
But a mushroom cloud hangs over my dreams
G#mB
It haunts my future and threatens my schemes
D#mG#mA#
Peace, peace, peace where did you go?
I've got me a sweetheart and I love her, too
We want to make big plans but what can we do?
When a mushroom cloud has changed every rule
It's deepened our thinking at home and at school
D#mA#D#m
Peace, peace, peace where did you go?
F#D#m
We prayed, we partied, we laughed and we prayed again
F#A#
And we played it cool and tried not to think of the mess we're in
I cling to my baby and she clings to me
We talk of the future, but what do we see?
There's a mushroom cloud that hangs in the way
Tomorrow looks black so we live for today
D#mA#
Peace, peace, peace where did you go?
D#mA#
Peace, peace, peace where did you go?
