 Em                    Bm7 
Split-level ranch on a mid-level street 
C                           G          D/F# 
Mailboxes huddled where the cul-de-sac meets 
    Em                             Bm7           C    Em 
And nothing ever happens, so we're led to believe 
     Em                       Bm7 
So I couldn't believe it as I opened the door 
    Cmaj7                    G           D/F# 
I'd never imagined something like that before 
    Em                         Bm7         Cmaj7    Em 
And though it was real, it was so much more 



    Cmaj7                             D6             Em 
She says the world's ending, but it's ending all the time 
D6 
Noah's children 
Cmaj7                                        Cmaj7 
Come out of the water, little wiser down the line 



   Em                           Bm7 
Between him and me, I should've got some gone 
       C                        G    D/F# 
Always whistling his little song 
           Em                             Bm7           C    Em 
Thought he had us in his pocket, girl, he got that wrong 
        Em                         Bm7 
All the way to the water, she just sat and stared 
C                                G             D/F# 
Perfume that he bought her still caught in her hair 
    Em                                  Bm7           C    Em 
And neither of us talking 'bout what we got back there 



    Cmaj7                             D6             Em 
She says the world's ending, but it's ending all the time

Come out of the water, little wiser down the line 
Em           Bm7          Cmaj7        D6 
Mother Mary, Mother Mary, Mother Mary, Mother Mary 
Em           D6 
Mother Mary, I ain't asked 
Em                D6 
Much from you now that time's passed 
   Em                    D6 
Forgive your sisters for what they'll do 
       Em                  D6         Em 
'Cause you'd have done the same thing too 


 
      Bm7   C     G

(Same, same thing)

Em                   Bm7 
Easter time, and the world is new 
C                            G         D/F# 
Lilies of the valley and the daffodils bloom 
         Em                       Bm7           C    Em 
And the stone rolled away and the angels singing 
      Em                          Bm7 
We're back up to the river in the pickup truck 
         C                              G       D/F# 
He'll be dead for forever, and he ain't getting up 
          Em                      Bm7               C    Em 
But if he ever comes back, better come back swinging 



    Cmaj7                             D6             Em 
She says the world's ending, but it's ending all the time
