[Chorus]
If the world would end today
And all the dreams we had would all just drift away, ooh
You know, there's nothing more to say
If the world would end and our love slipped away, ooh

[Verse 1]
I never knew the way that you look at me
Would ever mean so much to me
But in my heart, I found the feelings that I've never shown
And now they've got the best of me

[Chorus]
If the world would end today
And all the dreams we had would all just drift away, ooh
You know, there's nothing more to say
If the world would end and our love slipped away, ooh

[Bridge]
Ooh, la, da-da-da
La-da, da-da, da-da-da
Ooh, la, da-da-da
La-da, da-da, da-da-da

[Verse 2]
I never thought all the love I was looking for
Could ever be so close to me
But you're the only one I have ever loved that has ever loved me
And now you've got the best of me

[Chorus]
If the world would end today
And all the dreams we had would all just drift away, ooh
You know, there's nothing more to say

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
If the world would end today
And all the dreams we had would all just drift away, ooh
You know, there's nothing more to say
If the world would end and our love slipped away, ooh

Guns N' Roses was the most dangerous band in the world in the late 80s and early 90s. Led by singer Axl Rose and stylish guitarist Slash, they mixed the passion of blues, the heaviness of rock, and the attitude of punk, bringing forth a breath of fresh air to a music scene dominated by cheesy hair metal bands.

Their debut album, Appetite for Destruction, is the best selling debut of all-time. They outsold a headlining Aerosmith on their first major tour, released two double albums (Use Your Illusion I & II) simultaneously, and soon would play to audiences in excesses of 20,000 people.

However, cracks started forming in the band, as classic era drummer Steven Adler was fired from the band before the “Use Your Illusion” releases and founding rhythm guitarist Izzy Stradlin left abruptly during the ensuing tour. They were replaced by Matt Sorum and Gilby Clarke, respectively, with keyboardist Dizzy Reed joining the band and expanding the group’s sound.
