Verse 1: Bb My feet are aching Eb And your back is pretty tired Bb And we've drunk a couple bottles, babe Cm And set our grief aside Bb The Papers say it's doomsday Eb The button has been pressed Bb We're gonna nuke each other up boys Cm 'Til old satan stands impressed Bridge: Cm D D7 And here it is, our final night alive Gm D Bb And as the earth burns to the ground Chorus: Bb Ebmaj7 Ebm Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with Bb D D7 As the atom bomb locks in Ebmaj7 Ebm Oh it's you I watch TV with Bb D D7 Ebmaj7 Cm As the world, as the world caves in Verse 2: Bb You put your finest suit on Eb I paint my fingernails Bb Oh, we're going out in style babe Cm And everything's on sale Bb We creep up on extinction Eb I pull your arms right in Bb I weep and say goodnight love Cm While my organs pack it in Bridge: Cm D D7 And here it is, our final night alive Gm D Bb And as the earth burns to the ground Chorus: Bb Ebmaj7 Ebm Oh, girl, it's you that I lie with Bb D D7 As the atom bomb locks in Ebmaj7 Ebm Oh it's you I watch TV with Bb D D7 As the world, as the world caves... Ebmaj7 Ebm Oh it's you that I lie with Bb D D7 As the atom bomb locks in D#maj Ebm Yes it's you I welcome death with Bb D D7 Ebmaj7 Gm Ebmaj7 Gm As the world, as the world caves in Ebmaj7 Cm Bb As the world caves in.

memento mori
i can sing the low parts but the high parts make me sound like I’m dying
cryin or whateva
this song makes me cry so much :{ also, for everyone saying that emaj7 sounds weird, make sure you’re playing it on the right fret. the bar for emaj7 is on the third fret!
am i the only one that thought of the umbrella academy or-
I personally think that +2 is the most easiest route if you are looking for the easiest way to play this it includes less complicated notes for beginners who want to play this it still cramps up finger tho so beware :,D my poor fingers
I recommend -1, its easier and personally sounds better. stumming pattern i use is D D U D
anyone know an alternative for emaj7? It sounds a bit weird in this song
for anyone trying to do the version sarah did, change the transposer to -3
yw:)
-3 is definitely the easiest i think sounds a bit high but it works lol!
Transpose to -3 for the Sarah Cothran cover
I would recommend -5 for new players. Al the chords are close together and should make for a smoother chord transition.
Does anyone have any good strumming patterns for this??
I really like the way -3 sounds and it’s not very hard to play 🙂 Love this song!
personally I like doing -3 with a capo on the first fret !
+2 on the Transposer is the easiest for me 🙂
Strumming pattern of this song ?
-3 sounds best and is personally the easiest for me. Sounds so pretty, I thought that it wouldn’t sound the best on uku but so soooo good! ☺️
Personally I like to add a D and D7 right before the Cm at the end like how the song has the “ba dum duh dum dah dum” before the ending but do what y’all want ig
