  41      Am               F             Am
  42 Come gather 'round me people, and a story I will tell
  43                                 F            Am
  44 About a night not long ago, you all remember well.
  45                                       F            Am
  46 I tell it to you straight and true, I tell it like friend
  47               F                 Am
  48 All about the fearful night, we thought the world would end.

  50 I was walkin' down the sidewalk not causin' any harm
  51 The radio reported, it sounded with alarm
  52 The Russian ships were sailin' all out across the sea
  53 We all feared by daybreak it would be World War Number Three.
  54
  55 I was worried about an argument I had the day before
  56 Over some small matter, I'm sure it was nothin' more.
  57 But just a day ago, how it wrinkled up my brow
  58 The same thing today seems so unimportant now.
