Standard (EADGBE)

Yeah, can you hear the call in our rambling land? Susurrations

that can expand beyond all hope of light and plunge us into unrelenting

night; A pall on truth and reason, It feels like hunting season,

[break]

so avoid those lines of sight, and we'll set this right!

Welcome to the new dark ages:

Yeah, I hope you're living right.

These are the new dark ages,

And the world might end tonight.

Intro chords

Now come, ye children, one and all - let's heed Ezekiel's call,

And bide until the word is good and ripe then get plucked clean out of sight.

The world will be erased; our kin will be immaculate, ejaculate in space,

Before the king of king's love, he'll snatch us from above,

Break

brothers, help me sing it!

[Welcome to the new dark ages...]

So how do you sleep? There's nothing to keep... This is deep!

Because we're animals, with golden rules, who-

who can't be moved, by rational views, yeah!

[new chords this time!]

Welcome to the new dark ages: Yeah, I hope you're living right.

“Welcome to the new dark ages!” Say it again, yeah!

These are the new dark ages, I hope you're living right.

Welcome to the new dark ages! And the world might end tonight.
