    We were crawling through the hatch

    and then repeat II...
     
  • as we waited for the big one
    I started singing her my songs
    and I think she started feeling something for me
  •  
     
    This repeats, I,II,I,II, for the whole song, with one small exception in
  • the last verse...
     
    We passed the time with crosswords that she thought to bring inside
  • What five letters spell "apocalypse" she asked me
    I won her over saying "W.W.I.I.I."
    She smiled and we both knew that she'd misjudged me
  •  
    Oh Marie it was so easy to fall in love with you
    It felt almost like a home of sorts or something
  • And you would keep the warhead missile silo good as new
    And I'd watch you with my thumb above the button
     
  • Then one night you found me in my army issue cot
    And you told me of your flash of inspiration
    You said fusion was the broken heart that's lonely's only thought
  • And all night long you drove me wild with your equations
     
    Oh Marie do you remember all the time we used to take
  • We'd make our love and then ransack the rations
    I think about you leaving now and the avalanche cascades
    And my eyes get washed away in chain reactions
  •  
    Oh Marie if you would stay then we could stick pins in the map
    Of all the places where you thought that love would be found
  • But I would only need one pin to show where my heart's at
    In a top secret location three hundred feet under the ground
     
  • We could hold each other close and stay up every night
    Looking up into the dark like it's the night sky
    And pretend this giant missile is an old oak tree instead
  • And carve our name in hearts into the warhead
     
    Oh Marie there's something tells me things just won't work out above
  • That our love would live a half-life on the surface
    So at night while you are sleeping
    I hold you closer just because
  • As our time grows short I get a little nervous
     
    I think about the Big One, W.W.I.I.I.
  • Would we ever really care the world had ended
    You could hold me here forever like you're holding me tonight
    Em G D C
