[Verse 1]
Em
The roll of distant thunder breaks, 
the afternoon of silence wakes
Em
They hurry through from Petergate as
 if they know this dance
Em
In fury blind, I drive at night 
across the moors, the open roads
Em
Beneath the freezing starry skies, 
racing in some trance
C                                  
These cities are illusions of some 
G#
triumph over Nature's laws
Am                                
We've seen the iron carcass rust 
   B
and buildings topple into dust
C                                 
And as the waters rise, it seems 
  G#
we cling to all the rootless things
Am                            
The Christian lies, technology, 
        B
while spirits scream and sing

[Chorus]
         Em                Am
Oh God I love the world, I love the 
world
  G                 C
I love the world, I love the world
  Em                Am
I love the world, I love the world
  G                 C
I love the world, I love the world

  Em                Am
I love the world, I love the world
  G                 C
I love the world, I love the world
  Em                Am
I love the world, I love the world
  G                 C
I love the world, I love the world

[Verse 2]
Em
Well I never said I was a clever man
 but I know enough to understand
Em
That the endless leaps and forward 
plans will someday have to cease
Em
You blind yourselves with comfort 
lies like lightning never strikes 
you twice
Em
And we laugh at your amazed surprise
 as the Ark begins to sink
C                                 
This temple that is built so well 
   G#
to separate us from ourselves
     Am                            
Is a power grown beyond control, a 
B
will without a face
    C                           
And watching from outside I wish 
      G#
that I could wash my hands of this
    Am                          
But we are locked together here, 
      B
this bittersweet embrace

[Chorus]
         Em                Am
Oh God I love the world, I love the 
world
  G                 C
I love the world, I love the world
  Em                Am
I love the world, I love the world
  G                 C
I love the world, I love the world
  Em                Am
I love the world, I love the world
  G                 C
I love the world, I love the world
  Em                Am
I love the world, I love the world
  G                 C
I love the world, I love the world

[Verse 3]
N.C.
And if one day the final fire 
explodes across the whitened sky
N.C.
I know you've said you'd rather die 
and make it over fast
Em                           
With courage from your bravest 
           C#m6/E
friends, waiting outside for the end
        F#/E                       
With no bitterness but an innocence
      G/E
 that I can't seem to grasp
  C                                
I know somehow I will survive - 
  G#
this fury just to stay alive
   Am                            
So drunk with sickness, weak with 
             B
pain, I can walk the hills one last 
time
C                              
Scarred and smiling, dying slow, 
       G#
I'll scream to no one left at all
  Am                            B
I told you so, I told you so, I told
 you so .

[Chorus]
Em  Am   G   C
Em  Am   G   C

  Em                Am
I love the world, I love the world
  G           C
I love the world
  Em                Am
I love the world, I love the world
  G                 C
I told you so
