breathe the air again, it's a beautiful day
Bb                                      Am         Am7 A  Dm
I wish this moment would stay with the earth some primal paradise
                    Am
there you go again, saying everything ends
Bb                          Am        A
saying you can't depend on anything, or anyone

Dm                F         Bb
if the end of the world was near
F               A      Dm
where would you choose to be?
              Bb    F    C          A
if there were five more minutes of air
Bb
would you panic and hide
F
or run for your life
A                          Bb
or stand here and spend it with me
          F    A    Dm
if we had five more minutes
Bb        C                 Dm
would I, could I, make you happy?

Verse 2:
Dm                   Am
we would live again, in the simplest of ways
Bb                     Am        Am7 A  Dm
living day after day, like some primal animals
                         Am
and we would love again, under glorious suns
Bb                                     Am A
with the freedom that comes, from the truth

where would you choose to be?
              Bb    F    C          A
if there were five more minutes of air
          Bb
would you panic and hide
   F
or run for your life
   A                            Bb
or stand here and spend it with me
          F    A    Dm
if we had five more minutes
Bb        C                 Dm
would I, could I, make you happy?

Break:
Dm                    Am
so it finally came to pass, I saw the end of the world
Bb                         Am        Am7 A  Dm
I saw the madness unfold, like some primal burial
                Am    Bb
I look back upon, Armageddon
                                 Am      Bb
And the moment of truth between, you and me...

F         -nc-      Dm         Bb      C
if we had five more minutes of air to breathe
       F     A   Dm                  Bb          C
and we cried all through it, but you spent them with me
       F    A   Dm       Bb      C
on our last few drags of air we agreed
Bb          C         Dm
i was, and you were, happy
