Russians - Sting

   Am     Am7/G FM7 
In Europe and America
          Dm                 E/G#   E
there's a growing feeling of histeria.
   Am              Am/G    FM7
Conditioned to respond to all the threats
           Dm                      E/G# E       
in the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets.
    C                      E/G#  E
Mr. Krushchev said we will bury you,
  Am                      E/G#     E
I don't subscribe to this point of view.
            Am      Am/G     FM7
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
       Dm       E7                  Am
if the Russians love their children too.

    Am    G       FM7    Em
How can I save my little boy
     Am   G        FM7    Em
from Oppenheimer's deadly toy.
      Am      G         FM7    Em
There is no monopoly of common sense
   Am     G             FM7     Em 
on either side of the political fence.
   Am        G      FM7  Em  
We share the same biology,
  Am          G  FM7 Em
regardless of ideology.
  Am       G      FM7    Em   
Believe me when I say to you,
  Am       G        FM7        Em       Am
I hope the Russians love their children too.

There is no historical precedent, 
to put the words in the mouth of the president.
There's no such thing as a winnable war,
it's a lie we don't believe anymore
Mr. Reagan says we will protect you
I don't subscribe to this point of view.
Believe me when I say to you
I hope the Russian love their children too.

We share the same biology, regardless of ideology.
What might save us me and you,
is that the Russians love their children too.
