[NICK] (sung)
F#
Stop the world

B
Take a picture

D#m     
Try to capture

B    C#               B
To ensure this moment lasts

                      D#m
We're still in it, but  in a minute -

B                   B        C#              B
 That's the limit - and this present will be past

         C#
And here we are

          F#             
Where the world has come together

B         C#
  So here she'll be

        D#m
In this picture, forever
[DIANE] (spoken)
F#
 Look at this: 

                  B
Five hundred and forty million years ago,

     F#                               C#
The continents of the world crashed together right here;

        F#                                B                                           
And two hundred million years ago, they separated again, moving apart from each other.
[NICK] (spoken)
F#
Huh.
[DIANE] (spoken)
                     C#
But a little part of them was left behind.

         E
I should move! You're missing all the scenery!
[NICK] (spoken)
A
No, no! Stay where you are.
[DIANE] (spoken)
E
Really?
[NICK] (spoken)
             B
Really. It's perfect.
[DIANE] (sung)
E
Stop the world

A
Seize the moment

C#m               B                             A
But the minute he goes you're alone, and it's through 

                E
Pinch yourself, tell yourself:

             A                             B         A
"You're just dreaming, that means he'll forget about you"

         B
But here   we are

          C#m                B
Where the    continents once  crashed together

A      B               C#m              B            
 Before they went their   separate ways  forever, so

From spinning 'round               Ahhhh

 I wanna look out

            C#m
Overlooking something              Ahhhh

Of the trees
N.C. Stop the world
