Tom: C
Am
Ice Age or a heat wave
C
Earthquake or a plague
Dm
Terrorism or class warfare
F
Or the end of days
Am
I asked mamma, but she didn't know
C
Dad just shook his head
Dm
Put a couple ice cubes in his Whiskey,
F
sipped it and went to bed
Am C
Can I just pray to God to give me those Vegas odds
Dm F
I ask on behalf of a friend
Am C
Should I buy my folks a round or dig my cash in the ground
Dm F
I'm starting to think it's the end
[Chorus]
Am C
I know, I know we'll live for a thousand years
Dm F
What's in your crystal ball
Am C
Tell me, tell me oh where do we go from here
Dm F
Rome is too big to fall
[Verse 2]
Am
Other night I was riding on a C train
C
Packed car, bad mood
Dm
When his peabrain drunk-ass slicked back hair, having,
F
leather-jacket wearing ass Roger Klotz grease stain
Am
dude stumbles through the train mad rude
C
shoving a finger in our grills with this attitude
Dm
Yelling fuck you, fuck you, fuck every one of you
F
Yeah, yeah, that means fuck you too
Am
So when the train pulls in the next station
C
This one big ass hardcore
Dm
bouncer kinda Teamster kinda Paul Bunyon
F
kinda motherfucker shoves a fool out the car door
Am
Throws a haymaker, hits him in the chin
C
The whole train cheers the win
Dm
We're all high-fiving, feeling excellent
F
Having extra fun like we're next of kin
Am
Save all your Kumbayas
C
Don't take this shit too far
Dm F
You don't make no friends on no New York subway car
Am
How come when we gotta come together
C
We wait until we got someone that we can all come together to hate
Dm
And then for the hottest minute we set our shit aside and relate?
F
then forget again
[Chorus]
Am C
I know, I know we'll live for a thousand years
Dm F
What's in your crystal ball
Am C
Tell me, tell me oh where do we go from here
Dm F
Rome is too big to fall
[Verse 3]
Am
Nobody wants to die so nobody thinks of it
C
What if at the blink of an eye we be at the brink of it
Dm
We tend to blind when we're right up in the thick of it
F
We got this life to live and it's at our fingertips
Am
I'm taking my time and trying to me making the most of it
C
Let's open a wine bottle and can all toast a bit
Dm
And I never get light when I'm drunk so fuck all the poser shit
F
I'm tapping a vein, craving the truth, give me another dose of it
Am C
I'm not digging for danger but I decided that I won't be taking time for
Dm
my day for denying how I was made or fighting my human nature
F
I'm only looking to savor the ride
Am
I've paid for my pride back when I would cry, cry, cry
C
Spending my life wondering why, why, why
Dm
Taking the view soon I know it's all gonna fly right by
F
I will not go out like that!
[Outro]
Am C Dm
We won't go out like that
F Am
We won't go out like that
C
We won't go out like (We won't go out like)
N.C
We won't go out like that
