The planets tune in retrograde
F# minorF#m
The moon seems to have fled
E MajorE
The world is spinning upside down
E7E7
And landed on its head
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Just one lifetime
E MajorE E7E7
And there's only one, yes there's only one
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Just one life to live
E MajorE
Assuming that we'll make it
E7E7
We've no choice but to take it
B minorBm
I'm with you, the Walrus said
F# minorF#m
We'll dress for heavy weather
E MajorE
Whatever's on the road ahead
E7E7
We're in this now together
B minorBm
We thought we'd make a run for it
F# minorF#m
Not knowing where we're headed
E MajorE
We packed the car with both our bags
E7E7
And filled her up unleaded
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Just one lifetime
E MajorE E7E7
And there's only one, yes there's only one
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Just one life to live
E MajorE
Assuming that we'll make it

B minorBm
The time had come, a reckoning
F# minorF#m
We all knew it was coming
E MajorE
We headed North on empty roads
E7E7
The engine gently humming
B minorBm
The Walrus smoked a cigarette
F# minorF#m
He claimed it was his last
E MajorE
No signs of life, no gas, no food
E7E7
In all the empty towns we passed
B minorBm
All we have is me and you
F# minorF#m
It has to be enough
E MajorE
I've got your back and you've got mine
E7E7
If the going it gets rough
chorus:
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Just one lifetime
E MajorE E7E7
And there's only one, yes there's only one
D MajorD F# minorF#m
Just one life to live
E MajorE
Assuming that we'll make it
E7E7
We've no choice but to take it
B minorBm
The time has come, the Walrus said
F# minorF#m
To talk of many things
E MajorE
Of ships and shoes and sealing wax
E7E7
