[Verse 1]
C Gmadd9
I got a friend named Mineral King
Dm7 Fadd9
She falls asleep when she sings
G C F
She hides deep in the tall trees, under Autumn leaves
C Gmadd9
She wants to sell all her mineral things
Dm7 Fadd9
To mine gold, see what it brings
G C F
See her face in the movies, the silver screen
[Chorus 1]
C
When you're down
Dm7
And you're out
Am7 Fadd9
She's got the whole thing figured out:
G
"The world's not burning
C F
It's just us we're worried about
G
The world's not burning
C F
It's just us we're worried about…"
[Verse 2]
C Gmadd9
When you drive down to Mineral King
Dm7 Fadd9
It's like you step into a time machine
G C F
Where you find Walt Disney, and his fantasies
C Gmadd9
When you're starin' at Mineral King
Dm7 Fadd9
It's like you look into a slot machine
G C F
You see berries, bars, and fast cars, and think you'll win
[Chorus 2]
C
When you're down
Dm7
And you're out
Am7 Fadd9
She's got the whole thing figured out:
G
"The world's not burning
C F
It's just us we're worried about
G
The world's not burning
C F
It's just us we're worried about…"
[Instrumental]

G C F
C Gmadd9 Dm7 Fadd9
G C F
[Chorus 3]
C
When you're down
Dm7
And you're out
Am7 Fadd9
She's got the whole thing figured out:
G
"The world's not burning
C F
It's just us we're worried about
G
The world's not burning
C F
It's just us we're worried about
G
The world's not burning
C F
It's just us we're worried about
[Outro]
C Gmadd9
The last I saw Mineral King
Dm7 Fadd9
She turned to stone, she lost her skin
G C F
Nothing keepin' her from freezing in the Autumn breeze
C Gmadd9
I got a friend named Mineral King
Dm7 Fadd9
She falls asleep when she sings...
