verse 1 
            Am 
I've got the 21st century survival blues 
   G 
A condition brought on by watching the news 
Dm 
Things have been quiet for far too long 

EAnd if I know human beings, things are gonna go wrong 
        Am 
We were raised in a glade of unsustainable peace 
G 
Not many of us ever have to live on our knees 
Dm 
I'm scared that I won't have the strength that it takes 
         E 
To stand up when the levee breaks 


              F                       G 
So meet me at home when the sirens go off 
                 E                      Am 
I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost 
          F                             G 
I know a place where the two of us can hide 
                      E                      Am 
We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside 
                      F                       G 
When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold 
                 E                          Am 
You can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold 
                   F                 G 
I've got the 21st century survival blues 
                      E 
But to tell you the truth I just need you 



verse 2 
              Am 
I've got the 21st century survival blues 
      G 
A generation raised up without paying its dues 
  Dm 
Comfortable enough to play around with that 
          E 
Without knowing how to survive when the lights go out 
           Am 
And if we take away the things that they've been depending on 
          G 
We'll be failing like children in a nursery home 
       Dm 
So I started making lists of the essential things 
               E 
For when the storms bring what they bring 


              F                       G 
So meet me at home when the sirens go off 
                 E                      Am 
I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost 
          F                             G 
I know a place where the two of us can hide 
                      E                      Am 
We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside 
                      F                       G 
When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold 
                 E                          Am 
You can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold 
                   F                 G 
I've got the 21st century survival blues 
                      E 
But to tell you the truth 
             F C G Am F C E Am 
I just need you-you 
             F C G Am F C E Am 
I just need you-you 



verse 3 
F 
I've got the 21st century survival blues 
F# 
I've got shelter, drinking water I've got cupboards of food 
F 
And I know I can survive in my apocalypse home 
F#                                                        G 
But what's the point of surviving if you're just surviving alone 


              F                       G 
So meet me at home when the sirens go off 
                 E                      Am 
I don't wanna be alone so don't you get lost 
          F                             G 
I know a place where the two of us can hide 
                      E                      Am 
We can barricade the door and we'd be safe inside 
                      F                       G 
When the harsh winds blow and the world gets cold 
                 E                          Am 
You can't trust kindness and you can't eat gold 
                   F                 G 
I've got the 21st century survival blues 
                      E 
But to tell you the truth, let me tell you the truth 
             F C G Am F C E Am 
I just need you-you 
             F C G Am F C E Am 
I just need you-you
