verse 1: 
C                      Em 
President Reagan ain't faking when he says 
     G                        Em 
He's gonna teach the Russians good 
    C                          Em 
You seen what he done with his six shooting gun 
        G                  Am 
When he cleaned up in Hollywood 


verse 2: 
        F                          Dm 
And the White House standing up on Capitol Hill 
       G7                         C 
It's a fortress to freedom with a license to kill 
         Am                           Dm7 
Only the finger on the trigger with a gunslinger's skill 
     Bb                          G 
Will prove to the world he's not over the hill 


verse 3: 
        C                      Em 
And the men in the Kremlin all senile and twitchy 
      G                       Em 
Would love to come in to your life 
   C                           Em 
To reach out and touch you and teach you the history 
   G              Am 
Of revolution and strife 


verse 4: 
        F                           Dm 
And the Red Army's there to help you make up your mind 
       G7                            C 
If you think you've got something to do with your time 
         Am                           Dm7 
They got rockets and missiles that'll blow your mind 
    Bb                            G 
And blow your future right out of time

We're cruising to disaster 
        C          F 
Getting faster and faster 
          Em              G 
Watch the wheels catch on fire 
          F              G 
Watch the flames burning higher 
C             F 
Cruising to disaster 
        C          F

Say goodbye to the human race 

VERSE 5: 
      C                       Em 
We've had a good run, now the fun is all gone 
        G                     Em 
And the bomb is about to take over 
       C                           Em 
If you want a last look at what it says in the book 
             G                     Am 
It says, you better look over your shoulder 


VERSE 6: 
           F                Dm 
'Cause the military man has made his plans 
    G7                    C 
And ordinary people don't understand 
       Am                    Dm7 
It's a long hard haul to the promised land 
       Bb                             G 
If you want to survive, you've got to make a stand
