Christmas At Ground Zero
[Intro]
(with jingle bells)
D A Bm F# x3
A
(sound of bomb falling w/ explosion, then)
D Bm G A x4
[Main]
D
It's Christmas at ground zero
A
There's music in the air
The sleigh bells are ringing and the carolers are singing
D
While the air raid sirens blare
It's Christmas at ground zero
A
The button has been pressed
D
The radio just let us know that this is not a test
G
Everywhere the atom bombs are dropping
It's the end of all humanity
A
No more time for last minute shopping
B A
It's time to meet your final destiny
D
It's Christmas at ground zero
A
There's panic in the crowd
While we dodge debris let's trim the tree
D
Underneath the mushroom cloud
G
You might hear some reindeer on your rooftop
Or Jack Frost on your windowsill
A
But if someone's climbing down your chimney
B A
You better load your gun and shoot to kill
D
It's Christmas at ground zero
A
And if the radiation levels OK
I'll go out with you and see all the new
D
Mutations on New Year's Day
It's Christmas at ground zero
A
Just seconds left to go
I'll duck and cover with my Yuletide lover
D
Underneath the mistletoe
It's Christmas at ground zero
A
Now the missiles are on their way
What a crazy fluke we're gonna get nuked
D
On this jolly holiday
A
What a crazy fluke we're gonna get nuked
D
On this jolly holiday

[Newscast, overlapping with all verses]
This is the early evening edition of the news.
The recent fight in the House of Representatives was over the open housing
section of the Civil Rights Bill.
Brought traditional enemies together but it left the defenders of the
measure without the votes of their strongest supporters.
President Johnson originally proposed an outright ban covering discrimination
by everyone for every type of housing but it had no chance from the start
and everyone in Congress knew it.
A compromise was painfully worked out in the House Judiciary Committee.
In Los Angeles today comedian Lenny Bruce died of what was believed to be an
overdoes of narcotics.
Bruce was 42 years old.
Dr. Martin Luther King says he does not intend to cancel plans for an open
housing march Sunday into the Chicago suburb of Cicero.
Cook County Sheriff Richard Ogleby asked King to call off the march and the
police in Cicero said they would ask the National Guard to be called out
if it is held.
King, now in Atlanta, Georgia, plans to return to Chicago Tuesday.
In Chicago Richard Speck, accused murderer of nine student nurses, was brought
before a grand jury today for indictment.
The nurses were found stabbed an strangled in their Chicago apartment.
In Washington the atmosphere was tense today as a special subcommittee of the
House Committee on Un-American activities continued its probe into anti-
Viet nam war protests.
Demonstrators were forcibly evicted from the hearings when they began chanting
anti-war slogans.
Former Vice-President Richard Nixon says that unless there is a substantial
increase in the present war effort in Viet nam, the U.S. should look forward
to five more years of war.
In a speech before the Convention of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in New York,
Nixon also said opposition to the war in this country is the greatest single
weapon working against the U.S.
That's the 7 o'clock edition of the news,
Goodnight.

[Verse 1]
Bb Csus4
If I wanted to know who you were hanging with
Csus4
While I was gone, I would have asked you
Bb Csus4
It's the kind of cold, fogs up windshield glass
Csus4
But I felt it when I passed you
Bb Csus4
There's an ache in you, put there by the ache in me
Bb
But if it's all the same to you
Csus4
It's the same to me
[Chorus]
F
So we could call it even
F
You could call me "babe" for the weekend
Dm
'Tis the damn season, write this down
Dm
I'm stayin' at my parents' house
Dm
And the road not taken looks real good now
C Csus4 C Csus4
And it always leads to you in my hometown
[Verse 2]
Bb Csus4
I parkеd my car right between the Methodist
Csus4
And thе school that used to be ours
Bb Csus4
The holidays linger like bad perfume
Csus4
You can run, but only so far
Bb Csus4
I escaped it too, remember how you watched me leave
Bb Csus4
But if it's okay with you, it's okay with me
[Chorus]

We could just ride around

And the road not taken looks real good now
C Csus4 C Csus4
And it always leads to you in my hometown
[Bridge]
F Dm
Sleep in half the day just for old times' sake
C
I won't ask you to wait if you don't ask me to stay
F
So I'll go back to L.A. and the so-called friends
F
Who'll write books about me, if I ever make it
Dm
And wonder about the only soul
Dm
Who can tell which smiles I'm fakin’
C Csus4 C Csus4
And the heart I know I'm breakin' is my own
Bb C
To leave the warmest bed I've ever known
Bb C
We could call it even

And I'll be yours for the weekend
