Intro: A
verse 1
A
I hear peculiar wailing
From a distant fun fair
Dsus4
While staring out at the burnt down
A
Amusement pier
verse 2
A
A Chorus of motor horns
Harmonise in minor key
Dsus4
A more bloody nose and black eye
A
It’s so sad, it’s funny
verse 3
A C#m B
It’s both my business and my pleasure
D F A E
So mix the two with generous measures
A
Dream visions spawned
C#m B
From wild fever
D
In a videogame
F A
Chasing strangers
verse 4
A
So destiny’s callin’
But reception’s so poor
Dsus4
I'm waiting to go overground
A
Let no soul lure in sore
Pre-Chorus
G
And I went down to the playhouse
E D A
For some answers, or a clue at least
G
But from all the Shakespearian lessons
E
I came up asking with more questions
D Bm E
Namely to be or not to be
A C#m B
So bring it on my darling Clementine
D F A E
Let’s fuck it up one more time
A C#m B
Get your glad rags on, your LBD
D F A E
And presidential pearls, get away from me
A
Now drive the fuckin’ line
C#m B
If you’ve been long as I
D F A E
Thou shalt not throw away a game so sublime
A C#m B
Dream vision spawned from wild fever
D F A
In a videogame, tasering strangers
Ending
