[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                                  G#
These cities are illusions of some triumph over Nature's laws
Am                                   B
We've seen the iron carcass rust and buildings topple into dust
C                                   G#
And as the waters rise, it seems we cling to all the rootless things
Am                                    B
The Christian lies, technology, 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                                    G#
This temple that is built so well to separate us from ourselves
     Am                            B
Is a power grown beyond control, a will without a face
    C                                 G#
And watching from outside I wish that I could wash my hands of this
    Am                                B
But we are locked together here, 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                                      C#m6/E
With courage from your bravest friends, waiting outside for the end
        F#/E                             G/E
With no bitterness but an innocence that I can't seem to grasp
  C                                  G#
I know somehow I will survive - this fury just to stay alive
   Am                                         B
So drunk with sickness, weak with pain, I can walk the hills one last time
C                                     G#
Scarred and smiling, dying slow, 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
