Am7Crazy preachers Bm7of our doom
Am7Telling us there Bm7is no room.
Am7Not enough for Bm7all mankind
Am7And the seas of time Bm7are running dry.
CDon't they know it's a Bmlie...


EmMan is born with the Am7will to survive,
Bm7He'll not take no Cfor an answer.
EmHe will get by, Am7somehow he'll try,
Bm7He won't take no, Cnever let go, Emno...

[repeat twice the Am7 - Bm7 section and then:]

I hear them talk about Kingdom Come,
I hear them discuss Armageddon...
They say the hour is getting late,
But I can still hear someone say,
This is not the way...

Man is born with the will to survive,
He'll not take no for an answer.
He will get by, somehow he'll try,
He won't take no, never let go, no...
