A Mushroom Cloud

               Dm
 I want to be happy I want to be gay
                               Am
 I want to be normal in every way
        Dm                  Am
 But a mushroom cloud hangs over my dreams
     Gm                    Bb
 It haunts my future and threatens my schemes
  Dm            A                   Dm
 Peace, peace, peace where did you go?

                 Dm
 I've got me a sweetheart and I love her, too
                                            Am
 We want to make big plans but what can we do?
         Dm                  Am
 When a mushroom cloud has changed every rule
       Gm                      Bb
 It's deepened our thinking at home and at school
  Dm            A                   Dm
 Peace, peace, peace where did you go?

      F                                     Dm
 We prayed, we partied, we laughed and we prayed again
          F                                       A
 And we play it cool and try not to think of the mess we're in

                Dm
 I cling to my baby and she clings to me
                                        Am
 We talk of the future, but what do we see?
            Dm                  Am
 There's a mushroom cloud that hangs in the way
    Gm                      Bb
 Tomorrow looks black so we live for today
  Dm            A                   Dm
 Peace, peace, peace where did you go?
  Dm            A                   Dm
 Peace, peace, peace where did you go?
