[intro]

          C              C    C   C
We're not long for this world
          G              C    C
We're not long for this world
        F         C         F            C
And the way I can tell is I know you too well
          G            C      C   C   C
We're not long for this world

F           F              F           F             C    C   C   C
I know the words that you say, and the words that you mean
F        F          F            F            C    C   G   G
And I remember the days when you meant everything

We're not long for this world
We're not long for this world
And the way I can tell is I know you too well
We're not long for this world

You hold me close in your arms, and I feel the cold
But you never meant any harm by the lies that you told

We're not long for this world
We're not long for this world
And the way I can tell is I know you too well
We're not long for this world
