You're The Reason I Don't Want The World To End

• F

F                 Am
  It's already June
                       Dm
The light paints you pink
                              A#
When it breaks through the cherry trees
F                    Am
  You shout at the moon
                    Dm
We lay on your swing
                         A#
I'm right where I'm meant to be


          F            C
Well, the gray moves aside
        Dm         A#
For the first time in my life
     F          C
So I think that I
        A#
Got the dosage right


F                   Am
  Devil in your blood
                      Dm
The dull, unmoored ache
                    A#
The same one that haunted me
F                          Am
  But the bearings could rust
                        Dm
And the circuit could break
                 A#
If I love you entirely


       F           C
'Cause I'm finding hope
        Dm           A#
in the pocket of my winter coat
          F           C
With your gloves, a reminder
          A#
that I'm not alone

F

F                   Am
  I'm scared to my bones
                     Dm
That I won't find a way
        F              A#
To keep you and your brother safe
F                  Am
  A fire eats the coast
                    Dm
As the sea levels raise
          F         A#
It's like we're circling the drain

F                          Am
  The news keeps getting worse
                      Dm
The floods and this drought
          F                 A#
There's a mass shooting weekly now

F                           Am
  And it feels like you're cursed
                         Dm
Like we're letting you down
    F             A#
So, I'm gonna dig you out


       F           C
'Cause I'm finding hope
       Dm           A#
in the pocket of my winter coat
           F          C
With your gloves, a reminder
         A#
that I'm not alone (That I'm not alone)
           F             C
And you're brave, so I'm brave,
       Dm        A#
or I'm trying anyway
        F                C
Put the work in, plant a garden,
        A#
try to stay afloat

(Try to stay afloat)

(Try to stay afloat)

              F
I don't wanna die
                   A#
'Cause I gotta protect you
                           Gm
You're the reason I can't leave here yet
                             A#
The reason I don't want the world to end


              F
I don't wanna die
                                A#
I wanna light you through your darker months
                Gm
And I wanna swallow the sun
F              A#
Before it can swallow us

       F           C
'Cause I'm finding hope
       Dm           A#
in the pocket of my winter coat
          F            C
With your gloves, a reminder
         A#
that I'm not alone (That I'm not alone)
           F             C
And you're brave, so I'm brave,
       Dm        A#
or I'm trying anyway
        F                 C
Put the work in, plant a garden,
        A#
try to stay afloat

(Try to stay afloat)
        A#m
(Try to stay afloat)


F           C
I'm calling home,
          Dm              A#
hear you laughing in the afterglow
        F            C
And the reasons to abandon
       A#
all my former ghosts
              F
'Cause you're brave, so I'm brave,

or I'm trying anyway

Put the work in, plant a garden,

try to stay afloat
