Manhattan Project

G          A   F#               G
Imagine a time   when it all began
        G               A
In the dying days of a war
    F#               C               G
A weapon that would settle the score
          A
Whoever found it first
F#                G
Would be sure to do their worst
     A       F#    C    G   A   F#   C
They always had before
G          A   F#                 G
Imagine a man     where it all began
    G                    A
A scientist pacing the floor
         F#            C            G
In each nation, always eager to explore
              A
To build the best big stick
F#           G
To turn the winning trick
     A        F#        C
But this was something more

C  Bb  Dm   F

     C
The big bang, took and shook the world
Shot down the rising sun
    Bb
The end was begun, it would hit everyone
When the chain reaction was done
     Dm
The big shots, try to hold it back
Fools try to wish it away
     F
The hopeful depend on a world without end
Whatever the hopeless may say

  G         A   F#                G
Imagine a place   where it all began
      G                        A
They gathered from across the land
    F#          C                         G
To work in the secrecy of the desert sand
             A
All of the brightest boys
F#                G
To play with the biggest toys
 A              F#        C
More than they bargained for

The big bang, took and shook the world
Bb
  Shot down the rising sun
  Dm
The hopeful depend on a world without end
  F
Whatever the hopeless may say

G          A   F#                 G
Imagine a man     where it all began
     G              A
The pilot of Enola Gay
                            F#
Flying out of the shock wave
         G
On that August day
         A
All the powers that be
F#                 G
And the course of history
 A         F#             C
Would be changed for evermore
C  Bb  Dm   F

     C
The big bang, took and shook the world
Shot down the rising sun
    Bb
The end was begun, it would hit everyone
When the chain reaction was done
     Dm
The big shots, try to hold it back
Fools try to wish it away
     F
The hopeful depend on a world without end
Whatever the hopeless may say
C
The big bang, took and shook the world

Shot down the rising sun

The hopeful depend on a world without end

Whatever the hopeless may say
