This Is How The World Will End by The Elms

This Is How The World Will End chords by The Elms

Chords with lyrics

for playing this song (I think that there must be two guitars playing at the same time
the recording or the guitar is in a weird tuning, but I promise this works well). PS I
up those "G" chords' names to make this easier to read.

Tuning: Chord diagramEb MajorEb Chord diagramAbAb Chord diagramDbDb Chord diagramGbGb Chord diagramBb majorBb eb (this is just to play along with the recording, sounds fine in standard)

Chords:
G:        3x0033
G2:       3x0233
G3:       3x0433
Cadd2:    x30033
Em7:      022033
Dadd4/F#:  200233
D:         x00232

note: the easiest way to play those Chord diagramG+G chords is to play the low Chord diagramE MajorE string with your
your not comfortable doing that then I would suggest just playing Chord diagramG+G G2 Chord diagramG+G G2 for the intro/verse

Intro:

G2

VERSE 1:
       G2
When the dollar made with blood is spent
        G2
When an enemy can't become a friend
         Chord diagramG+G             Chord diagramCadd2Cadd2
When the better man won't lend a hand
     Chord diagramG+G
Baby this is how the world will end
When a day of hope is a rarity,
Or a diplomat hasn't time to see
That a child lost is a true offense,
Baby, this is how the world will end.

CHORUS:
     Chord diagramCadd2Cadd2      Chord diagramG+G
Bring a chair up to the table.

And if a certain light don't shine again,
    Chord diagramG+G
Baby, this is how the world will end.

VERSE 2:
When the poorest kid is fending for himself,
Or the widow cries, but she gets no help.
When we know what's true, but we still pretend,
Baby, this is how the world will end.

CHORUS
Bring a chair up to the table.
Bring a message to the crowd.
Where's a common trust to deliver us from the wretched and the proud?
Sing a tune about the promise.
Speak on that which we depend.
Now let that certain light come shinin' then,
Baby, we could change the world again.

But if that certain light don't shine again,
     Chord diagramG+G
Baby, this is how the world will end.
