The Sun Is Burning

(intro)   E

         E              A      E
    The sun is burning in the sky,
                           A            B7
    strands of clouds go slowly drifting by.
            E
    In the park the dreamy bees are droning in the flowers
                A
    among the trees,
     B7      E         A      E
    and the sun burns in the sky.

             E      A      E
    Now the sun is in the west,
                      A                  B7
    little babes lie down to take their rest,
             E
    And the couples in the park are holding hands and waiting
             A
    for the dark,
    B7       E     A       E
    and the sun is in the west.

             E     A        E
    Now the sun is sinking low,
                       A               B7
    children playing know it's time to go.
           E
    High above a spot appears, a little blossom blooms and then
           A
    draws near,
    B7       E      A       E
    and the sun is sinking low.

             E       A      E
    Now the sun has come to earth,
                   A                 B7
    shrouded in a mushroom cloud of death.
                 E
    Death comes in a blinding flash of hellish heat, and leaves a smear
        A
    of ash,
     B7      E       A       E
    and the sun has come to earth.

             E       A    E
    Now the sun has disappeared,
                        A                  B7
    all that's left is darkness, pain and fear.
              E
    Twisted, sightless wrecks of men go crawling on their knees,
                A
    and cry in pain,
    B7       E       A    E
    and the sun has disappeared.
