[INTRO:] C F C F C F Em G [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
[CHORUS:]
      C             F
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
Getting faster and faster

         Em              G
Stand in line, take your place

        F                G
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
