R.E.M. - Its The End Of The World As We Know It
G
Cmaj7
That's great, it starts with an earthquake,
G
Cmaj7
birds and snakes, an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
G
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
Cmaj7
world serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs.
G
Feed it up a knock, speed, grunt no, strength no.
Cmaj7
Ladder structure clatter with fear of height, down height.
Bb
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
Am
in a government for hire and a combat site.
G
Cmaj7
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your
neck.
G
Team by team reporters baffled, trump, tethered crop.
Cmaj7
Look at that low plane! Fine then.
G
Cmaj7
Uh oh, overflow, population, common group, but it'll do.
Save yourself, serve yourself.
G
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed.
Cmaj7
Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the right - right.
Bb
Am
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty
psyched.
G Dsus2 Am
It's the end of the world as we know it
G Dsus2 Am
It's the end of the world as we know it
G Dsus2 Am
C
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
G
Six o'clock - TV hour. Don't get caught in foreign tower.
Cmaj7
Slash and burn, return, listen to yourself churn.
G
Lock him in uniform and book burning, blood letting.
Cmaj7
Every motive escalate. Automotive incinerate.
G
Light a candle, light a motive. Step down, step down.
Cmaj7
Watch a heel crush, crush.
G
Uh oh, this means no fear - cavalier. Renegade and steer clear!
Cmaj7
A tournament, a tournament, a tournament of lies.
Bb Am
Offer me solutions, offer me alternatives and I decline.
G Dsus2 Am
It's the end of the world as we know it
G Dsus2 Am
It's the end of the world as we know it
G Dsus2 Am
C Cmaj7
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
G Cmaj7 G Cmaj7 G F
I feel fine
G Dsus2 Am
It's the end of the world as we know it
G Dsus2 Am
It's the end of the world as we know it
G Dsus2
Am C
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
G
The other night I tripped a nice continental drift divide.
Cmaj7
Mount St. Edelite. Leonard Bernstein.
G
Leonid Breshnev, Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs.
Cmaj7
Birthday party, cheesecake, jelly bean, boom!
Bb Am
You symbiotic, patriotic, slam, but neck, right? Right.
G Dsus2 Am
It's the end of the world as we know it
