[Opening]
[Dm] [Am] [Bb] [C] [Am]
[Dm]Breathe the air again, [Am]it’s a beautiful day [Bb]
[Bb]I wish this moment would stay
[C]With the earth, some [Am]primal [Dm]paradise
[Dm]But there you go again, [Am]saying everything ends [Bb]
Saying you can’t depend on [C]anything, [A7]or anyone
[chorus]
[Dm]If the end of the [F]world was [Bb]near
[F]Where would you [C]choose to [Dm]be?
If there was [Bb]five [F]more [C]minutes, of [A]air
Would you [Bb]panic and hide?
Or [F]run for your life, or [C]stand here and spend it with [Bb]me?
If we had [F]five [C]more [Dm]minutes
[Bb]Would I, [C]could I make you [Dm]happy?
[verse 2]
[Dm]And we would live again, [Am]in the simplest of ways [Bb]
[Bb]Living day after day, [C]like some [Am]primal [Dm]animals
[Dm]We would love again [Am] [Am]under glorious suns [Bb]
With the freedom that comes [C]with the truth [A7]
[chorus]
[Dm]If the end of the [F]world was [Bb]near
[F]Where would you [C]choose to [Dm]be?
If there was [Bb]five [F]more [C]minutes, of [A]air
Would you [Bb]panic and hide?
Or [F]run for your life, or [C]stand here and spend it with [Bb]me?
If we had [F]five [C]more [Dm]minutes
[Bb]Would I, [C]could I make you [Dm]happy?
[verse 3]
[Dm]So it finally came to [Am]pass, I saw the end of the world [Bb]
[Bb]Saw the madness unfold, [C]like some [Am]primal [Dm]burial
And I looked back upon [Am] [Bb]Armageddon
And the moment of truth between [Am]you and [Bb]me
[Closing]
[Am] [Bb]Oh… [Am] [Bb]
If we had five more [Dm]minutes, of [Bb]air to [C]breathe
And we [F]cried [C]all [Dm]through it, but you [Bb]spend them [C]with me
On our [F]last [C]few [Dm]drags, of [Bb]air we [C]agree
[Bb]I was, and [C]you [Dm]were, happy
