[Verse 1]
[G]Jack
confides in Catherine
That he's [Em]filing for divorce
[Dsus4]Catherine gives her promise
To [D]keep it [C]secret but of course
[G]As soon as backs are turned
in soaps
[C]They're sharpening their claws
[Am]Meanwhile my whole world is col
[G]lapsing

[Verse 2]
[G]The congregation's nervous
Espe[Em]cially bride to be
There's [Dsus4]three of them she'd rather have
[D]Gone dow[C]n on bended kne[G]e
Credits roll on âspeak up now
[C]Or forever hold your peaceâ
Meanwhile my whole world
is col[G]lapsing[D]

[Verse 3]
It's [G]pretty odd some [Bm]two bob god
[D]Can[C] somehow grip the natio[D]n[Bm]
[D]But may[G]be to us sad[D] old[Bm] mares
[D]It's [C]a form of consola[D]tion
[C]Makes us feel creative
In a [Dsus4]life minus creatio[G]n
[Am]Meanwhile our whole
world [C]is col[G]lapsing
Look [C]out on the streets out[Am]side
[D]Catch a conversa[G]tion
The [Am]whole wide [C]world is col[G]lapsing

[Verse 4]
The [G]oldest of the brothers
The [Em]audience thought was dead
Re[Dsus4]turns to find his sister

[C]Tucked up in bed
If [G]this is true to life
Feed [C]me fantasy instead
[Am]Meanwhile [C]the whole
world is col[G]lapsing[D]

[Verse 5]
It's [G]pretty odd some [Bm]two bob god
[D]Can[C] somehow grip the natio[D]n[Bm]

The [Am]whole wide [C]world is col[G]lapsing

[Verse 6]
These [G]petty little problems
They [Em]bring into our home
We [D]actually tend to laugh about
Cause [C]ours would not get shown
And suf[G]ferings so much funnier
When it's [C]theirs and not your own
[Am]Meanwhile your whole world is col[G]lapsing
