N.C.       D MajorD   G+G
The sheriff disappeared
       D MajorD        G+G
He drove in a doomed Corvette


            D MajorD                     G+G
Helen was in the passenger seat eating melon and spitting out the seeds
             D MajorD            G+G              D MajorD  G+G D MajorD G+G
Feeling happy to be alone but still turning a saxophone as cold as stone kinda like

Verse 2:
                D MajorD          G+G
She said this is what the apocalypse will look like
        D MajorD     G+G
A augmentedA tornado with human eyes
                D MajorD
Poisoned birdbaths and torrents of chemical rain
        G+G                  D MajorD     G+G
Like the heads of state hyperventilating in clouds of methane
        D MajorD      G+G D MajorD G+G
Sundown on the human heart

Verse 3:
             D MajorD           G+G
And this is what the apocalypse will sound like
               D MajorD     G+G
But it will be loud as a mushroom cloud
             D MajorD
It will sound like final jeopardy
                 G+G
But somehow be ghostly like a glockenspiel
               D MajorD               G+G
Like the testing of bombs or the tapping of stiletto heels

Chorus:
          D MajorD
It will sound like jazz
     G+G
Jazz jazz jazz
      D MajorD
Jazz on the autobahn
G+G          D MajorD
 It will sound like jazz
     G+G
Jazz jazz jazz
      D MajorD    G+G
Jazz on the autobahn

Verse 4:
        D MajorD
The sheriff disagreed
G+G                    D MajorD
He tried to make the distinction between death and extinction
G+G                 D MajorD
They stopped off at a place called Hamburger Heaven to grab a bite to eat
  G+G                   D MajorD
But Helen had no appetite, she just drank a 7 Up
                  G+G
While the sheriff tapped his coffee cup to a distant beat

D MajorD G+G D MajorD G+G

Verse 5:
               D MajorD
It won't look like those old frescoes, man I don't think so
G+G                  D MajorD
There will be no angels with swords, man I don't think so
G+G             D MajorD
No jubilant beings in the sky above, man I don't think so
G+G                 D MajorD
And it won't look like those old movies neither
G+G                       D MajorD
There will be no drag racing through the bombed out streets neither
G+G              D MajorD
No shareholders will be orbiting the earth, man neither
G+G              D MajorD
It will be hard to recognize each other through our oxygen masks
G+G                    D MajorD
The successful sons of businessmen will set their desks on fire
      G+G                      D MajorD
While five star generals of the free world weep in the oil-choked tide

Chorus:
G+G          D MajorD
It won't sound like jazz
     G+G
Jazz jazz jazz
      D MajorD

They agreed to disagree
G+G          D MajorD
They zoomed off in a doomed Corvette
G+G              D MajorD
The sheriff couldn't recall feeling this way his entire life
   G+G                   D MajorD
As he drove through the principalities of unreality
                G+G
On the run with somebody else's wife
        D MajorD     G+G D MajorD G+G
The heiress of Texas oil

Verse 7:
D MajorD
 What is freedom? He thought
G+G            D MajorD
 Is it to be empty of desire?
G+G                 D MajorD
Is it to find everything I've lost or have been in search of?
      G+G                       D MajorD
Or is it to return to the things is which there is no more returning?
