Lyrics

We’re leav ing to geth er,

but still it’s fare well.

And may be we’ll come back

to (Db)earth; who can (Gb)tell?

(Cbmaj7)I guess there is (Db)no one to blame.

We’re (Db)leav ing (Ebm)ground.

Will things ev er (Bbm7)be the same a gain?

It’s the fi nal (Ebm)count down.

(The (Bb7#5)fi nal (Ebm11)count down.)

(T mi nus five, four, three, We’re two, ed for one, nus, ze ro.)

and (Ebm7)still we stand tall.

And (Ebm7)may be they’ve (Ebm)seen us,

and (Db)wel come us (Gb)all.

With so man y (Db)light years to go

and (Db)things to be (Ebm)found,

I’m sure that (Gbmaj7)we’ll all miss her so.

It’s the fi nal (Ebm)count down.

The (Ddim)fi nal (Ebm)count down.

It’s the (C7)fi nal (Fm)count down.

It’s the (Bb)fi (C)nal (Fm)count down.

The (C7)fi nal (Fm)count down.

We’re leav ing to (Bbm)geth er.

The (C)fi nal (Fm)count down.

We’ll all miss her (Bbm7)so.

The fi nal (Eb)count (Fm)down.
