[First Part]
G My feet are aching
C And your back is pretty tired
G And we've drunk a couple bottles, babe
C 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
C 'Til old satan stands impressed [Bridge]
Am B7 And here it is, our final night alive
Em B7 G And as the earth burns to the ground [Chorus]
Continues after the ad
Bm C Cm Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with
G B7 As the atom bomb locks in
C Cm Oh it's you I watch TV with
G Bm C As the world, as the world caves in [Second Part]
G You put your finest suit on
C I paint my fingernails
G Oh, we're going out in style babe
C 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
C While my organs pack it in [Bridge]
Am B7 And here it is, our final night alive
Em B7 G And as the earth burns to the ground [Chorus]
Bm C Cm Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with
G B7 As the atom bomb locks in
C Cm Oh it's you I watch TV with
G Bm C As the world, as the world caves in
C Cm Oh, it's you that I lie with
G B7 As the atom bomb locks in
C Cm Yes, it's you I welcome death with
G Bm As the world, as the world caves in
