A#              F
Well wood burns, and metal rusts,
C              F
So, darling, what’s to become of us,
A#                     F
When the weather turns, and they say it must,
C                F
Well we’ll need coats for the both of us,

But the wool is thin and it’s full of holes,
And there’s no heat in this abandoned bus,
So will we go alone, out on our own,
Oh, darling, what’s to become of us

Well, boats sink into the sea
And airplanes that crash like computer screens
And signals fail, trains derail
And car bonnets crumple like magazines

‘Til they’re put in piles like stacks of tiles
In a yard full of fridges and broken stuff
Will we go alone out on our own
Oh, darling, what’s to become of us

Chorus:
A#                              F
We will bite our noses off to spite our faces,
                 A#                            F
Both of us will rust like metal fences in the rain,
A#                             Dm
You will pour the gasoline and I will spark the matches,
       F                             C
We will burn within our fire, we will burn within our flames

Well, yeast ferments and milk sours
When it’s out of the fridge for too many hours
Well, we lament in separate towers
Never knowing if we’re brave or if we’re cowards

For they pour cement down this hole of ours
And we’ll be stuck under stones and flowers
Will we go alone out on our own
Oh, darling, that’s what will become of us
