This Is How The World Will End chords by The Elms

Guitar 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: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb 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
🎸
Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -
note:  the easiest way to play those G chords is to play the low E string with your
your not comfortable doing that then I would suggest just playing G G2 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
                  G                         Cadd2
When the better man won't lend a hand
         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:
          Cadd2           G
Bring a chair up to the table.
          Cadd2           G
Bring a message to the crowd.
           Cadd2                  Em7          Cadd2
     D
Where's a common trust to deliver us from the wretched and the proud?
           Cadd2          G
Sing a tune about the promise.
           Cadd2           D
Speak on that which we depend.
            G                         Cadd7
And if a certain light don't shine again,
       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


SOLO


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.

                  G                                     Cadd2
But if that certain light don't shine again,
          G
Baby, this is how the world will end.
