The World's End (Boo Hewerdine)

This is on Boo Hewerdine's third album, Baptist Hospital. It's in E (no

capo).

[Intro] :

Do you ever get the feeling that you're living someone else's life?

and all the time you thought that you were happy and didn't think twice

The winter that we spent together got so cold I thought we'd die

and the dress you wore at Easter that made me cry

[Chorus]:

I'll meet you at the world's end, G ---------------1/2------|

two saints walking arm in arm

I'll meet you at the world's end, two saints walking arm in arm

young again

The smoke from burning bridges has been stinging in our eyes for years

so we never learn to see the good that stares us in the face

with the sound of false alarm bells still ringing in our ears

so all the time we never knew, there is no better place

[Chorus]

[Bridge] :

So we share a secret place

I never knew it meant that much to you

G^ E

A place where we begin and end

see, I never knew, I never knew

[Chorus]

[kindof bridging bit] :

D --2---/7\6------------2-/7----6\2-----------2-h-4-p-2---|

Do you ever get the feeling that you're living someone else's life?

[outro] - (suggested) :

G --1---1---1---1/2\1-------------------------|
