IN THE YEAR 2525
Zager & Evans
G#m F#
In the year 2525 If man is still alive
E Eb7
If woman can survive they may find
G#m F#
In the year 3535 Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
E Eb7
Everything you think do and say Is in the pill you took today
G#m F#
In the year 4545 Ain't gonna need your teeth won't need your eyes
E Eb7
You won't find a thing to chew Nobody's gonna look at you
G#m F#
In the year 5555 Your arms hangin' limp at your sides
E Eb7
Your legs got nothin' to do Some machine's doing that for you
G#m F#
In the year 6565 Ain’t gonna need no husband, won't need no wife
E
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
Eb7
From the bottom of a long glass tube Woh-O-Woh
(KEY CHANGE – ½ Step up)
Am G
In the year 7510 If God's a comin He oughta make it by then
F
Maybe He'll look around Himself and say
E7
Guess it's time for the judgement day
Am G
In the year 8510 God is gonna shake His mighty head
F
He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been
E7
Or tear it down and start again woh oh
(KEY CHANGE – ½ Step up)
Bbm G#
In the year 9595 I'm kinda wonderin' if man is gonna be alive
F#m
He's takin everything this old earth can give
F7 Bbm (strum only once)
and he ain't put back nothin woh oh
(very slowly - strum each cord once)
Bbm G#
Now it's been ten thousand years Man has cried a billion tears
F#m F7
For what he never knew Now man's reign is through
Bbm G#
But through eternal night the twinkling of starlight
F#m F7
So very far away Maybe it's only yesterday
(moderately fast)
Bbm
In the year 2525
G#
If man is still alive
F#m F7
If woman can survive, they may find ……… and fade.
