Originally in G, I play in E
Vox on the 5 for basically the whole song
I play all the IVmaj7’s as IV’s
| E | Amaj7 |
| That’s great, it starts with an | earthquake |
| E | Amaj7 | |
| Birds and snakes, an | aeroplane, Lenny Bruce is | not afraid |
| E |
| Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn |
| Amaj7 |
| World serves its own needs, don’t misserve your own needs |
| E |
| Speed it up a knock, speed, grunt, no, strength no |
| Amaj7 |
| Ladder starts to clatter with fear fight, down height |
| G |
| Wire in a fire, representing seven games |
| F#m | |
| In a | government for hire and a combat site |
| E |
| Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing |
| Amaj7 | |
| Do | wn your neck |
| E |
| Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered, cropped, look at |
Plane, fine, then get one beat each
| Amaj7 |
| That low plane, fine, then |
| E |
| Uh oh, overflow, population, common group, but |
| Amaj7 |
| It’ll do, save yourself, serve yourself, world serves its |
| E |
| Own needs, listen to your heart bleed, tell me with the |
| Amaj7 |
| Rapture and the reverent in the right, right |
| G | |
| You | vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light |
| F#m |
| Feeling pretty psyched |
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| A | |
| And I feel f | ine |
| E |
| Six o’clock, TV hour, don’t get caught in foreign tower |
| Amaj7 |
| Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn |
| E |
| Lock him in uniform, and book burning, blood letting |
| Amaj7 |
| Every motive escalate, automotive incinerate |
| E |
| Light a candle, light a motive, step down, step down |
| Amaj7 |
| Watch a heel crush, crush, uh oh, this means |
| E |
| No fear, cavalier, renegade, steer clear |
| Amaj7 | |
| A t | ournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies |
| G | F#m |
| Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I | decline |
With “might I have some time alone” for the rest of the song
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| A | |
| And I feel f | ine |
| E | Amaj7 | E | Amaj7 | E | D | D |

| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| A | |
| And I feel f | ine |
| E | |
| The o | ther night I dreamed of knives, continental drift divide |
| Amaj7 |
| Mountains sit in a line, Leonard Bernstein |
| E |
| Leonid Breshnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs |
| Amaj7 |
| Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom |
| G | F#m | |
| You | symbiotic, patriotic, slam, but neck, | right? Right |
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
| E | B | F#m | |
| It’s the | end of the | world as we k | now it |
