Original by Matt Maltese – As The World Caves In

G
my feet are aching
C
and your back is pretty tired..
G
and we’ve drunk a couple bottles, babe
C6
and set our grief aside..

G
the papers say it’s doomsday
C
the button has been pressed..
G
we’re gonna nuke each other up boys
C6
‘til old satan stands impressed..

Am B
and here it is.. our final night alive..
Em B/D# Em/G A/C#
and as the earth burns to the ground oh girl

Reff :
C Cm
it’s you.. that i lie with..
G B
as the a..tom bomb locks in..
C Cm
oh, girl it’s you.. i watch TV with..
G B C
as the world.. as the world.. caves in

G
you put your finest suit on
C
i paint my fingernails..
G
oh we’re going out in style, babe
C6
and everything’s on sale..

G
we creep up on extinction
C
i pull your arms right in
G
i weep and say goodnight love
C6
while my organs pack it in..

Am B
and here it is.. our final night alive..
Em B/D# Em/G A/C#
and as the earth burns to the ground oh girl

Reff :
C Cm
it’s you.. that i lie with..
G B
as the a..tom bomb locks in..
C Cm
oh, girl it’s you.. i watch TV with
G B G
as the world.. as the world.. caves in
