When All of Us are Gone

When All of Us are Gone by Dave Robinson, 25 August 2026 verse 1 one Em physicist woman try to split the atom one Am pacifist man says ‘ban the bomb’ C none of us down here can fathom G where the common sense has gone you Em don’t know where you’re going I Am don’t know where you’re from will there C still be anything left down here when G all of us are gone? .. Am … Am … verse 2 Em politicians tell us ‘pay more tax’ the Am newsman tells us ‘here are the facts there’s C far more wisdom now than then we’re all G tryin’ to make the world make sense you Em don’t know where you’re going I Am don’t know where you’re from will there C still be anything left down here when G all of us are gone? .. Am … Am … verse 3 one Em chimpanzee in a rusty cage as the Am scientist scribbles a number on his page a C new formula will be soon be on the shelf so more G beauty can be seen and felt you Em don’t know where you’re going I Am don’t know where you’re from will there C still be anything left down here when G all of us are gone? .. Am … Am … verse 4 well Em robots now are all the rage as the Am unions call for a living wage C supply is up and demand is down it’s G economics that makes the world go round you Em don’t know where you’re going I Am don’t know where you’re from will there C still be anything left down here when G all of us are gone? ..
