Lyrics
Oh,
mercy mercy me.
(C#m)Oh, things ain't what they used to be,
no, no.
where did all the blue skies go?
(B7sus)Poison is the wind that blows from the north and south and east,
and so, oh, mercy mercy me.
(C#m)Oh, things ain't what they used to be.
No, no, oil wasted on the ocean and above our seas,
fish full of mercury.
(Emaj9)Oh,
mercy mercy me.
(C#m)Oh, things ain't what they used to be.
Radiation underground (B7sus)and in the sky,
animals and birds are dying.
(Fmaj9)No, no,
(Dm7)no.
(Gm9)My, my, my, my, my, my,
my, my, (C13sus)ooh.
(Fmaj7)Oh,
mercy mercy me.
(Dm7)Oh, things ain't what they used (Ab)to be.
(Gm7)What about this overcrowded land;
how much more abuse from man can she stand?
