[Primeira Parte]
F Dm7
Every couple of years now, a doctor says I'm sick
F Dm7
Pulls out a brand new bag of tricks and then they lay it on me
F Dm7
And at first, it was my brain, then a skeleton in pain
F Dm7
And I don't like to complain, but I'm saying sorry
[Pré-Refrão]
Bb Am
When I met you, I thought I was damaged goods
Bb
Had a fucked up childhood
Am
And there's poison in my brain and in my blood
[Refrão]
Bb A4
If you knew it was the end of the world
Gm9
Could you love me like a child?
F
Could you hold me in the dark?
B A4
If you knew it was the end of the world
Gm9
Would you like to stay a while?
F
Would you leave when it gets hard?
[Segunda Parte]
F Dm7
So I ran into the clinic and I asked to see the man
F Dm7
With his white coat and his stethoscope like a snake around his hand
F Dm7
And I told him I'm not bitter 'cause I finally found a lover
F Dm7
Who's better for my liver and now I'll finally recover
[Pré-Refrão]
Bb Am
When I met him, I thought I was damaged goods
Bb
From a real bad neighborhood
Am
So we wrestled in the mud
Bb Am
And I told him he could stay right where he stood
Gm
But I don't know if he should
F
'Cause once my God destroys the flesh, then there's the flood
[Refrão]
Bb A4
If you knew it was the end of the world
Gm9
Could you love me like a child?
F
Could you hold me in the dark?
B A4
If you knew it was the end of the world
Gm9
Would you like to stay a while?
F
Maybe we could build an ark
[Ponte]
Bb A4
We could sail on broken driftwood through the sopping wet terrain
Gm9 F
And count the buildings and the bodies getting swallowed by the rain
Bb A4
And in the water there's the doctor who didn't listen to my claim
Dm7
What a shame, he's circling a drain
[Terceira Parte]
Bb Am
When I met you, I said I would never die
Bb Am
But the joke was always mine 'cause I'm racing against time
Bb Am
And I know it's not the end of the world
Dm7
But could you pick me up at eight?
F
'Cause my treatment starts today
