              Intro: G# (Two times) 
 
G                      D         D#dim 
Why does the sun go on shining 
Em                       Bm 
Why does the sea rush to shore 
Am7                      Bm7        E7 
Don't they know it's the end of the world 
Am                        Cm       D 
Cause you don't love me anymore 
G                      D         D#dim 
Why do the birds go on singing 
Em                     Bm 
Why do the stars glow above 
Am7                      Bm7        E7 
Don't they know it's the end of the world 
   Am           D         G 
It ended when I lost your love 
Am7+                           G          D                  
I wake up in the morning and I wonder why  
          G 
Everything's the same as it was 
Bm                      E                    Am                
I can't understand no I can't understand why  
       Cm       D 
Life goes on the way it does 
G                      D         D#dim 
Why does my heart go on beating 
Em                        Bm 
Why do these eyes of mine cry 
Am7                      Bm7        E7 
Don't they know it's the end of the world 
Am                D        G      C#/D# 
It ended when you said goodbye 
G#7M                    D#          Fdim 
Why does my heart go on beating 
Fm                        Cm 
Why do these eyes of mine cry 
A#m                      Cm         F7 
Don't they know it's the end of the world 
A#m               D#      D#7M 
It ended when you said goodbye
