Down In The Ruined World Uke tab by Craig Wright

# VERSE 1

G       F#      Bm
Come my darlin, come my love

         C           G      D
We'll go down in the ruined world

   G          F#
Of stripmall, cigarettes,

Em     Bm          C   G      D
Rubber gloves, and California girls

   Bm              Em
In every corner of every car

          C                Am7
There's a coal grey couple curled

    G           F#       Em       Bm
The people make love the way they can

C           D      G
Down in the ruined world

# VERSE 2
So come my angel, come my prize
We'll go down in the ruined world
Don't veil you face, don't hide your eyes
See the oil in the water swirl
The scents enough to spin your head
But, oh, how the colors whirl
We settle for beauty sunk in chains
down in the ruined world


# BRIDGE


And with a

C
Lonely kind

G
Of Heartbreak

C
We look around

G
Do a double-take

C
Is it Babylon or

D
Eden in a mist?

There's no way of knowing

# BRIDGE 2
Is the world
Just a black hole?
Or eternities great goal?
I felt sure our
Names were on the list
But where are we going?


C              G      D
   Down in the ruined world

There's no way of knowing

C              G      D
   Down in the ruined world

                      G
   Down in the ruined world

   G          F#    Em
So come my darling, come my dear

         C           G      D
We'll go down in the ruined world

          G       F#     Em         Bm
where the answers are forever near

            C       G        D   
and they're real as cultured pearls

       Bm                      Em
If the world is where the eyes can see

     C       B      Am7
Then god's a pretty girl

        G    F#      Em    Bm
And the only freedom is to give

C           D      G
Down in the ruined world
Down in the ruined world
Down in the ruined world
Down in the ruined world
