INTRO
E C#m A B
E C#m
Away with the lights and down
A B
with every last remaining conversational height
E C#m
are we out of sight
A B
I’m not about to let this keep me up in the night
E C#m
Oh we happy few
A B
we condescending congregating party of fools
E C#m
any words will do
A B
a streaking and a stocking in a room with a view
C#m
And I’ve done
G#
I’ve done what I could
E F#7
To black-and-whiten down technicolorhood
C#m G#
But I know, I got to be good
E
If I wanna catch the break that
F#7
I know I should
A B
Yes I should, yes I should
Have run away while I could
E C#m A B
E C#m
Four years and a week To complete
A B
What Damon or Gonzales would have done in a day
E C#m
Here’s to our defeat
A B
We'll sugarcoat it all to cut the meaning away
E C#m
This is all so well
A B
As long as we get all the leeway needed to think
E C#m
We are hooks and cowbells
A B
I hope this ends up in a Kenzo advertisement
C#m
And I’ve done
G#
I’ve done what I could
E F#7
To black-and-whiten down technicolorhood
C#m G#
But I know, I got to be good
E
If I wanna catch the break that
F#7
I know I should
A B
Yes I should, yes I should
Have run away while I could
