Welcome to the end of the World (One More Time)

Tuning Open C
Capo 7
Key Gm7

CGCGCE


Welcome to the end of the world, one more time
Welcome to the end of the world, one more time
Welcome to the end of the world, one more time
Welcome to the end of the world, one more, one more, one more time

Now the Mayan Temple calendars said
By 2012 we'd all be dead
Or was it 10 or was it 9?
It's a thousand years since they made the signs
Well it's come and gone and we're still here
Just goes to show what irrational fear
Can do for a so-called civilised mind
Seek the devil you shall find

You should have heard them crying, the priests are prophesying
Ahh ahh ahh ahh
Welcome to the end of the world, one more time…..


Now the 50's were a troubled time
Nations in the firing line
Nuclear weapons east and west
While leaders snarled and beat their chest
So people went and dug holes in the ground
And that is where they’d be found
The day the sirens would have wailed
And mankind's future would have been severely curtailed

And when the Russkies dropped the bomb
They'd survive and everybody else would be gone
But they never seemed to pay any mind
Of when they crawled out what they'd find
You should have heard them crying, the atmosphere's gonna be frying
Ahh ahh ahh ahh
So welcome to the end of the world, one more time…

So now they say it's end of days
W’ve entered a new extinction phase
We're sliding down the slippery slope
Let's rob the young of all their hope
And using the politics of fear
They'll make sure their names all appear
In learned publications
And the doom-feed of nations
And no, it's not a clever guess
See it's real, it's in the press
There's research grants to pay for
And everything to play for

You should hear them crying, the Biosphere is dying
Ahh ahh ahh ahh
So welcome to the end of the world, one more time …
