      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# 
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#                      F7
For what he never knew  Now man's reign is through
Bbm                            G#
But through eternal night  the twinkling of starlight
F#                F7
So very far away  Maybe it's only yesterday

(moderately fast)

Bbm  
In the year 2525
G#
If man is still alive
F#                    F7
If woman can survive, they may find ……… and fade.
