Preaching the End of the World

[verse]
E                             C#m
Hello, I know there's someone out there
        C#m7/B                 A    E/G#             F#m  B
Who can understand and who's feeling the same way as me
E                  C#m              C#m7/B
I'm 24 and I've got everything to live for
       A               E/G#            F#m  B4  B
But I know now that it wasn't meant to be

[bridge]
Bm7            B7           E7       E7/F#,G#
'Cause all has been lost and all has been won
             A              A2  A  Am
And there's nothing left for us to save
    Am4,3,2    Am   E         B/D#           C#m  C#m7/B
But now I know that I don't wanna be alone today
             Am                  A7                B4  B
So if you're finding you've been feeling just the same

[chorus]
                  F#m
Call me now, it's alright
              C#m            C#m7/B
It's just the end of the world
               A                E/G#
You'll need a friend in the world
                   F#
'Cause you can't hide
                      B7
So call and I'll get right back
           C#7
If your intentions are pure
              F#7            B            E   B
I'm seeking a friend for the end of the world

[verse]
I've got a photograph, I'll send it off today
You will see that I am perfectly sane
Not for a lifetime or forever and a day
'Cause we know now that just won't be the case

[chorus]

A                     A7
With no commitment and no confessions
  D                      G   Gmaj7
And no little secrets to keep
Gm7                 D
No little children or houses with roses
        F#7                  B   B4  B
Just the end of the world and me

[bridge]
'Cause all has been gone and all has been done
And there's nothing left for us to say
We could be together as they blow it all away
And we could share in every moment as it breaks

[chorus] 2x
