[Verse 1]
G#maj7 G#7/D# A7sus4/C F7
As much as you say that we won't decay,
C# C#/C A#m G#maj7 G#7/D#
The bombs went off a week ago.
G#maj7 G#7/D# A7sus4/C F7
The grass here is gray, been walking all day,
C# C#/C A#m G#maj7 G#7/D#
But I'm not sure we'll make it home
[Chorus]
A#m A#m7 C#m
So if you trust me, hold me close and
G# D#/G Fm7 C C7
We'll turn to sculptures made of sand.
A#m A#m7 C#m
Once they find us, a thousand years from now,
G# D#/G Fm7 G#7/D#
We'll still be right here holding hands,
C#maj7 D#6 (G7) G#maj7 G#7/D# G#maj7 G#7/D#
Still be glowing, smiling like we didn't give a damn.
[Verse 2]
G#maj7 G#7/D# A7sus4/C F7
The lights getting low, and the dust to snow,
C# C#/C A#m G#maj7 G#7/D#
The broken windows went everywhere.
G#maj7 G#7/D# A7sus4/C F7
Your clothes may be torn, but I'll keep you warm,
C# C#/C A#m G#maj7 G#7/D#
I'll shade your eyes from the firestorm.
[Chorus]
A#m A#m7 C#m
So if you trust me, hold me close and...
G# D#/G Fm7 G#7/D#
We'll turn to sculptures made of sand.
A#m A#m7 C#m
Once they find us, a thousand years from now,
G# D#/G Fm7 G#7/D#
We'll still be right here holding hands,
C#maj7 C/D# (G7) G#maj7 G#7/D# G#maj7 G#7/D#
Still be glowing, smiling like we didn't give a damn.
