Fifteen years from now
Bm
I know it feels remote
C G
But picture it somehow
D
In your head
Em
It's 1984
Bm
And knocking on your door
C G
Is the Brownshirt Stasi guard
D
Boom, you're gone
C G
And in the blood of the Kennedys
D Bm
The good ones get shot
C G
And in the absence of sympathies
D
Won't you hear me out?
Em C
When it all burns down
G D
When it all burns down
Em C G
I will hold you close for the minute
D Em
Yeah, I'll hold you for the minute it takes
Em
Fifty-five years from now (ooh)
Bm
I know it sounds insane (ooh)
C G D
The dark fascist regime might be gone (might be gone)
C G
Oh, if you by then have forgiven me (ooh)
D Bm
When push comes to shove
C G
We don't have to be enemies (ah-ah)
D
Won't you hear me out?
Em C
When it all burns down
G D
When it all burns down
Em C G
I will hold you close for the minute
D
For the minute
C Em
When it all burns down
A Cm G
And the flames devour everything that we are
D C
I will hold you for the minute
D Em
I will hold you for the minute it takes
Em
With these words at hand
Bm D
The future is a foreign land
C
So let us pray for more
G D
In 2024
Em Bm
(2024) We could grow old together
C C
(2024) We could love one another
C G
(2024) And there will from then be peace forevermore (forever)
Em
Peace forevermore (and forever)
Em C
But if it all burns down
G D
If it all burns down
Em C G
I will hold you close for the minute
D
For the minute
C Em
If it all burns down
A Cm G
And the flames devour everything that we are
D C
I will hold you for the minute
D Em
I will hold you for the minute it takes
