You'll need a capo on three or four, whichever sounds best to you
and works with your voice.
[INTRO]
[VERSE ONE]
C
Every few thousand years
Em D
Come true man's greatest fears
Em
All the living things
C G
Mother Nature brings to tears
C
When the bombs are bursting in the air
Em D
And the rockets are making that red glare
Em
I'm heading down,
C Em G
Down to that good hope town, where the weather's fair
[CHORUS]
Em D Em C
So why don't you come away
G D
With me, my love
Em
We'll do what it takes
C
I'll keep you safe
Em D Em C
Why don't you stay by me
G C
And when the time comes
Em
We'll escape
[VERSE TWO]
C
When the big one finally hits LA
Em D
When Yellowstone has its day
Em
We're heading to the southern tip
C
On a plane or on a ship,
Em G
We'll do what it takes, we'll find a way
C
And if that cloud forms up above
Em D
No sign anywhere of a dove
Em
There'll be no reason left to stay
C
We'll try and live another day
Em G
In a place where there's still love
[CHORUS]
Em D Em C
So why don't you come away
G D
With me, my love
Em
We'll do what it takes
C
I'll keep you safe
Em C Em C
Why don't you stay by me
G C
And when the time comes
Em
We'll escape
We'll escape
Em C D G
Ohhh, come away with me, we'll escape. (x4)
