[Pre-vers 1]
Well it  Fmaj7/Cmight not be imGportant to you Dsus2now
When the Fnight is Gyoung and Dsus2everyone's around
And the  Gmusic Fflows
Through your Gdoped up FDisney Fmaj7/CmindG  Dsus2  
[Post-vers 1]
But you'll be Fmaj7/Ccrying like a Gbaby when it Dsus2comes
And you will Fmaj7/Ctry it any Gway you can to Dsus2find a place to run
Cos' it Gain't no Ffun In Gparty town
when Fmaj7/Cloneliness   Gcomes Dsus2crashing down
Yeah, when Fmaj7/ClonelyneGss comes crDsus2ashing down
[Solo]
  F    G    Dsus2x2
[Vers 2]
And you'll be  Fmaj7/Churting in a Gway you can't exDsus2plain
And all those Fmaj7/Cpretty   Gthings you love will Dsus2look so vain
Cos' the Glaughing Fcrowd is such a Ghopeless sound
when Fmaj7/ClonelineGss comes Dsus2crashing down
Yeah, when Fmaj7/ClonelyneGss comes Dsus2crashing down
[Break]
And you Bbmight not think aA7bout
Just what Dmhappens now
as your Fguests colClect their coGats.
In an Bbempty A7house
full of Dmashtray doubts
Your A7formless future Cflooooo-Dmooats

G F G G
F G Dsus2
[Pre-vers 3]
So the Fmaj7/Cbad and beautyGful still reDsus2main
With their deFmaj7/Cpleted   Gbounty of Dsus2bad cocaine
And we Glove the Fhouse
But we Gcan't quite Fplace the Fmaj7/CnameG  Dsus2  
[Post-vers 3]
And it Fmaj7/Cmight not be imGportant to you Dsus2now
When the Fmaj7/Cnight is Gyoung and you are Dsus2loose and loud
Cos' there Gain't no Fsound
in Gparty town
Quite like Fmaj7/ClonelineGss Dsus2crashing down
Quite like Fmaj7/ClonelyneGss Dsus2crashing down
  Fmaj7/Ccrashing Dsus2down
[Outro]
