Verse 1:
Bm                    Gbm
Breathe the air again
Gbm                    G
It's a beautiful day
G
I wish this moment would stay
A
With the earth
     Gbm     Bm
Some primal paradise
Bm                     Gbm
But there you go again
Gbm                      G
Saying everything ends
                             A
Saying you can't depend on anything
Gb7
Or anyone
 
Chorus:
Bm                D         G
If the end of the world was near
D                A        Bm
Where would you choose to be?
             G   D    A
If there was five more minutes
    Gb
Of air
           G
Would you panic and hide?
   D
Or run for your life?
   A                              G
Or stand here and spend it with me?
          D    A    Bm
If we had five more minutes
G       A                Bm
Would I, could I make you happy?
 
Verse 2:
Bm                       Gbm
And we would live again
Gbm                       G
In the simplest of ways
G
Living day after day
A          Gbm     Bm
Like some primal animals
Bm                  Gbm
We would love again
Gbm                  G
Under glorious suns
                            A
With the freedom that comes with the truth

Gb7

 Bridge:
Bm                    Gbm
So it finally came to pass
Gbm                         G
I saw the end of the world
G
Saw the madness unfold
A         Gbm     Bm
Like some primal burial
                       Gbm
And I looked back upon
     G
Armageddon
                                Gbm      G
And the moment of truth between you and me

Outro:
          -nc-      Bm
If we had five more minutes
   G     A
Of air to breathe
       D     A   Bm
And we cried all through it
        G             A
But you spend them with me
       D    A   Bm
On our last few drags
   G     A
Of air we agree
G         A        Bm
I was, and you were, happy
