One last dance

Here at the end of the empire

C     G  Am
Makes me cry

G7            F          G
Watching the moon on the ocean

      F                  C   
Where California used to be, 

              Am
It's not half bad

Oh, spend half your life being sad

  Dm                  G

Oh-oh, just take my hand, oh-oh

 Dm           
Standing at the

End of the American Empire

One last song

G7          F          G
Here at the end of the movie

      C     G  Am
They seemed so sure

G7                  F  
At lΠ΅ast that's the way 

      G         G7
I remembΠ΅r the war

      F               C   
When New York used to be, 

              Am
It's not half bad

Oh-oh, spending half

Your life being sad

Woah, don't you weep

    Dm                        G
Oh-oh, half your life fast asleep

    Dm               G
Oh-oh, feeling uninspired

Oh, standing at the

End of the American Empire
 
 
[Interlude]

        C              G/B    Am Am/G
And we know that it's time to go

           F          D   G F
Heard the news on the radio

          Em      E      Am G5 F
One last round before we go

F           C          G      E
Through the pale atmospheric glow

        C        G/B      Am Am/G
And the oxygen's getting low

       F            D        G   F
Sing a song that we used to know

          C       G      C
One last round before we go

[Verse]

C                       Am
  Didn't use to get high, 

Didn't use to drink and I

C                      Am      
  Didn't use to think I   could 
                  F
Ever dream about losing you
 
 
[Verse]

C                       Am
  Didn't use to get low   this

 Time of night and I

C                        Am
  Didn't use to walk home   

In the morning light

        F            G
Without you, without you
 
 
[Verse]

Didn't use to think I   could 

                 F
Ever dream about losing you, 

G
You, but I do

 
 
[Chorus]
    C
It’s you and I, 

It’s do or die

 Am
Suicide mission, 

Baby by my side

      C
We got one life and 

Half of it’s gone

           Am
You know I can’t sleep with

 The television on

 
 
[Outro]

       C              Am
Didn't use to get high

     C             Am
With you by my side
