Elvis Costello - Waiting for the end of the world

The ^Gman from the ^Ctele^Fvision ^Gcrawled into the ^Ctrain. F G C F G CF I wonder who he's gonna stick it in this time. ^CEv'ryone was ^Bblooking ^Ffor a ^Clittle enter^Bbtainment, ^FSo they'll ^Gprob'bly pull his ^Chands off ^Fwhen they ^Gfind out his ^Cname. And ^Fthen they ^Dshut down the power all al^Fong the l^Cine, And we got ^Dstuck in the tunnel where ^Fno lights ^Cshine. They got to t^Douching all the girls who were too^F scared to c^Call out. ^DNobody was saying anything at all. G C F G CF We were waiting for the end of the world. G C F G CF Waiting for the end of the world, ^GWaiting for the ^Cend ^Fof the w^Gorld. Dear ^EmLord, I sinc^Gerely hope you're comin',

^GThings got back to ^Cnormal ^Fas the ^Gtrain began to ^Croll ag^Fain. G C F G C F|G CF|G CF| We got to the station about twenty minutes later. The l^Cegendary h^Bbitchh^Fiker s^Cays he knows wh^Bbere it's at^F. ^GNow he'd like to ^Cgo to S^Fpain, or s^Gomewhere like t^Chat, ^FWith his t^Dwo-tone Bible and his f^Funny cigar^Cettes, His^D sun tan lotion and his castenets. G C F G CF He was waiting for the end of the world, G C F G CF Waiting for the end of the world, ^GWaiting for the ^Cend ^Fof the w^Gorld. Dear L^Emord, I sinc^Gerely hope you're comin',

^CAnd th^Fen the br^Gide, the gr^Coom, the congreg^Fation and the pr^Giest All got onto the tr^Cain when we were^F three stations ^Geast, yeah.

^CHiding from a sc^Bbandal ^Fin the n^Cational press,^Bb They h^Fad been tr^Gying to get m^Carried s^Fince they st^Gole the wedding dr^Cess. ^{F D}You may see them drowning as you str^Foll along the b^Ceach. But don't thr^Dow out the lifeline till they're clean out of reach. G C F G CF Waiting for the end of the world. G C F G CF Waiting for the end of the world.
