The End

[First Part]

F                            
  Every couple of years now, a 
   Dm7
doctor says I'm sick
              F                    
Pulls out a brand new bag of tricks
                        Dm7
 and then they lay it on me
        F                          
And at first, it was my brain, then
     Dm7
 a skeleton in pain
       F                         
And I don't like to complain, but 
             Dm7
I'm saying sorry

[Pre-Chorus]

        Bb                     
When I met you, I thought I was 
          Am
damaged goods
                      Bb
Had a fucked up childhood
                           Am
And there's poison in my brain and 
in my blood

[Chorus]

         Bb                      
If you knew it was the end of the 
  A4
world
                           Gm9
Could you love me like a child?
                          F
Could you hold me in the dark?
         B                       
If you knew it was the end of the 
  A4
world
                           Gm9
Would you like to stay a while?
                              F
Would you leave when it gets hard?

[Second Part]

      F                        Dm7
So I ran into the clinic and I asked
 to see the man
           F               
With his white coat and his 
                      Dm7
stethoscope like a snake around his 
hand
       F                           
And I told him I'm not bitter 
     Dm7
'cause I finally found a lover
       F                         
Who's better for my liver and now 
       Dm7
I'll finally recover

[Pre-Chorus]

        Bb                     
When I met him, I thought I was 
          Am
damaged goods
                         Bb
From a real bad neighborhood
                       Am
So we wrestled in the mud
       Bb                          
And I told him he could stay right 
           Am
where he stood
                         Gm
But I don't know if he should
'Cause once my God destroys the 
  F
flesh, then there's the flood

[Chorus]

         Bb                      
If you knew it was the end of the 
  A4
world
                           Gm9
Could you love me like a child?
                          F
Could you hold me in the dark?
         B                       
If you knew it was the end of the 
  A4
world
                           Gm9
Would you like to stay a while?
                        F
Maybe we could build an ark

[Bridge]

          Bb                     
We could sail on broken driftwood 
              A4
through the sopping wet terrain
               Gm9             
And count the buildings and the 
                  F
bodies getting swallowed by the rain
            Bb                     
And in the water there's the doctor
             A4
 who didn't listen to my claim
         Dm7
What a shame, he's circling a drain

[Third Part]

        Bb                         
When I met you, I said I would 
   Am
never die
                         Bb        
But the joke was always mine 'cause
                    Am
 I'm racing against    time
        Bb                         
And I know it's not the end of the 
 Am
world
                            Dm7
But could you pick me up at eight?
                      F
'Cause my treatment starts today
