Verse 1:
Dbm                     Abm
breathe the air again, it's a beautiful day
A                                      Abm         Abm7 Ab  Dbm
I wish this moment would stay with the earth some primal paradise
                    Abm
there you go again, saying everything ends
A                          Abm        Ab
saying you can't depend on anything, or anyone
 
Chorus:
Dbm                E         A
if the end of the world was near
E               Ab      Dbm
where would you choose to be?
              A    E    B          Ab
if there were five more minutes of air
A
would you panic and hide
E
or run for your life
Ab                          A
or stand here and spend it with me
          E    Ab    Dbm
if we had five more minutes
A        B                 Dbm
would I, could I, make you happy?

Verse 2:
Dbm                   Abm
we would live again, in the simplest of ways
A                     Abm        Abm7 Ab  Dbm
living day after day, like some primal animals
                         Abm
and we would love again, under glorious suns
A                                     Abm Ab
with the freedom that comes, from the truth
 
Chorus:
Dbm                E         A
if the end of the world was near
E               Ab      Dbm
where would you choose to be?
              A    E    B          Ab
if there were five more minutes of air
          A
would you panic and hide
   E
or run for your life
   Ab                            A
or stand here and spend it with me
          E    Ab    Dbm
if we had five more minutes
A        B                 Dbm
would I, could I, make you happy?

Break:
Dbm                    Abm
so it finally came to pass, I saw the end of the world
A                         Abm        Abm7 Ab  Dbm
I saw the madness unfold, like some primal burial
                Abm    A
I look back upon, Armageddon
                                 Abm      A
And the moment of truth between, you and me...

Outro:
E         -nc-      Dbm         A      B
if we had five more minutes of air to breathe
       E     Ab   Dbm                  A          B
and we cried all through it, but you spent them with me
       E    Ab   Dbm       A      B
on our last few drags of air we agreed
A          B         Dbm
i was, and you were, happy
