IT'S THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT (AND I FEEL FINE)

 G                               C
 That's great it starts with an earthquake
                          G
 Birds and snakes and aeroplanes
                       C
 Lenny Bruce is not afraid
  G              
 Eye of a hurricane listen to yourself churn
  C
 World serves its own needs dummy serve your own needs
  G
 Speed it up a notch speed grunt nose street burn
      C
 The ladder starts to clatter with dinner fight down height
  Bb
 Wire in a fire room represent the southern gangs
          A
 In a government for hire and a combat site

{same as before}
 Lefty wasn't coming in a hurry
 With the furies breathing down your neck
 Team by team reporters grapple trunk tethered crop
 Look at that low plane fine then
 Uh oh overflow population cornered
 But it'll do save yourself serve yourself
 World serves its own needs listen to your heartbeat
 Tell me that the reds are in the reverend in the right right?
 You patriotic patriotic slam fight right might feeling pretty psyched
 
           G            D          Am
 It's the end of the world as we know it 
           G            D          Am
 It's the end of the world as we know it
           G            D          Am                  C     C/B  
 It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
 
 Six o'clock TV hour don't get caught foreign tower
 Slice and burn return listen to yourself churn lock him in uniform
 And book-burning blood-letting every motive escalate
 Automotive incinerate light a candle light a motive
 Step down step down watching heel crush crush
 Uh oh this means no fear cavalier renegade steer clear
 A tournament a tournament a tournament of lies
 Offer me solutions offer me alternatives and I decline
 
 It's the end of the world as we know it
 (It's time I had some time alone)
 It's the end of the world as we know it
 (It's time I had some time alone)
 It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine

   G      C       G       C      G      F
  I feel fine    I feel  fine       
 
 The other night I drifted nice continental trip to find
 Mount Saint Edelite Leonard Bernstein
 Leonid Brezhnev Lenny Bruce and Lester Bangs
 Birthday party cheesecake jellybeans boom
 You symbiotic patriotic slam foot neck right right
