Gm                     Dm
breathe the air again, it's a beautiful day
Eb                                      Dm         Dm7 D  Gm
I wish this moment would stay with the earth some primal paradise
                    Dm
there you go again, saying everything ends
Eb                          Dm        D
saying you can't depend on anything, or anyone
 
Chorus:
Gm                Bb         Eb
if the end of the world was near
Bb               D      Gm
where would you choose to be?
              Eb    Bb    F          D
if there were five more minutes of air
Eb
would you panic and hide
Bb
or run for your life
D                          Eb
or stand here and spend it with me
          Bb    D    Gm
if we had five more minutes
Eb        F                 Gm
would I, could I, make you happy?

Verse 2:
Gm                   Dm
we would live again, in the simplest of ways
Eb                     Dm        Dm7 D  Gm
living day after day, like some primal animals
                         Dm
and we would love again, under glorious suns
Eb                                     Dm D
with the freedom that comes, from the truth
 
Chorus:
Gm                Bb         Eb
if the end of the world was near
Bb               D      Gm
where would you choose to be?
              Eb    Bb    F          D
if there were five more minutes of air
          Eb
would you panic and hide
   Bb
or run for your life
   D                            Eb
or stand here and spend it with me
          Bb    D    Gm
if we had five more minutes
Eb        F                 Gm
would I, could I, make you happy?

Break:
Gm                    Dm
so it finally came to pass, I saw the end of the world
Eb                         Dm        Dm7 D  Gm
I saw the madness unfold, like some primal burial
                Dm    Eb
I look back upon, Armageddon
                                 Dm      Eb
And the moment of truth between, you and me...

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