Intro: Em D C Am
[Em]Buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh-duh-dah
[D]Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh-duh-dah
[C]We're all going, [Am]we're all going
Well, the [Em]lampshade's on fire when the lights go out
The [D]room lit up and we ran about
Well, [C]this is what I really call a party now
P[Am]acked up our cars, move to the next town
Well, the [Em]lampshade's on fire when the lights go out
Th[D]is is what I really call a party now
Well, [C]fear makes us really, really run around
[Am]This one's done so where to now?
Our [Em]eyes light up, we have no shame at all
Well, yo[D]u all know what I'm talking about
[C]Shaved off my eyebrows when I fall to the ground
So [Am]I can't look surprised right now
[Em]Pack up again, head to the next place
[D]Where we'll make the same mistakes
B[C]urn it up or just chop it down
But [Am]this one's done so where to now?
[G]Buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh-duh-dah
[F]Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh-duh-dah
[C]We're all going, we're all going
Well, the [Em]lampshade's on fire when the lights go out
Th[D]is is what I really call a party now
Well, [C]fear makes us really, really run around
But [Am]this one's done so where to now?
Our [Em]eyes light up, we have no shame at all
Well, y[D]ou all know what I'm talking about
The [C]room lights up, well, we're still dancing around
[Am]We're having fun, having some fun now
[Em]Pack up again, head to the next place
[D]Where we'll make the same mistakes
O[C]pen one up and let it fall to the ground
P[Am]ile out the door when it all runs out
[G]Buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh, buh-duh-dah
[F]Duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh, duh-duh-dah
[C]We're all going, we're all going
We have [G]spines and other bones
We'll eat your fo[F]od, we'll throw stones
Well, this is h[C]ow it's always gone
And this is how it's going to go
Well, [G]we're the human race
We're going to p[F]arty at this place
And then move [C]on
(Tough luck)
Will kill you [G]off and then make a clone
Yeah, we got sp[F]ines and other bones
This is h[C]ow it's always gone
And this is how it's going to go
As our [G]feelings are getting hurt
Oh, we want y[F]ou to do the work
Our ass looks [C]great inside these jeans
Well, we want just our water clean
This is h[G]ow it's always been
And this is h[F]ow it's going to be
So you just move [C]on
The [Em]air's on fire so we're moving on
[D] Better find another one cause this one's done
[C] Waiting for the magic of the sun to explode
To [Am]push, push, push, push, pull us up
[Em]Spend some time, float in outer space
F[D]ind another planet, make the same mistakes
Our [C]mind's all shattered when we come and go
H[Am]oping for the scientists to find another door
