[Verse 1]
                                 C
Some friends come in and out of view
                           G                    
Last time I looked we were dancing like dogs on fire
                                   C
Now I'm laughing with your little girl
                   G               
Laughing about my sunburn on that day

                           C
Oh, it's good to see her smile
                   G            
I remember how you held me as I cried
                        C
Flailing like a landed fish
                        G                  
Trying to get back to before this day went away

[Chorus]
                       F
But who would make the cut
                 Am   G
When our time is up
                             F
And everyone pointing at the sky
              C      G
Screaming the end is nigh

     C
It's coming

[Verse 2]
                            C           
Like an explorer clearing ground
                     G               
Swinging your blade, flashing in the sun
                            C
You come right through my moped
               G                
Pick me up and then was on your way

                C
I treasure the stars
C
We'll always have
        G                 
I don't remember where we were
                  C
Don't think we'd return
                  G                    
These moments are fleeting as they are pure

[Chorus]
                           F
But I think you'd make the cut
                 Am    G
When our time is up
                         F
Everyone pointing at the sky
              C      G
Screaming the end is nigh

C
It's coming

[Bridge]
F Am G

F                 Am   G
Everybody for the last time
F                       Am   G
Come here to me for the last time

[verse 3]
C
Will it be a fireball from the sky?
           G               
Or will we all take to the bed
                   C
Laid low by a new pox?
            G                 
Or will the wrong guy get the codes?

                   C
Whose arms will I seek?
                   G                 
Whose eyes would I meet in the final throws
                            C
And say it was good to be human?
         G              C
To be a human with you here

[chorus]
                   F
Who would make the cut
                 Am   G
When our time is up?
                             F
And everyone pointing at the sky
              C      G
Screaming the end is nigh

                       F
I think you'd make the cut
                 Am   G
When our time is up
                             F
And everyone pointing at the sky
               C      G
Screaming, the end is nigh

[outro]
C
It's coming
C
Oh, hold me, it's coming
C
Hold me, it's coming 
C
Hold me, it's coming 
C
Hold me, it's coming 
C
Hold me, it's coming 
C
Hold me, it's coming 
C
Hold me, it's coming
