[Intro]

A A/G# A A/G#

[Verse]

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

You were bad before you left a good life

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

To chase the palm trees swaying in the light

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

Do you say what you mean

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

You are only sixteen

A A/G# A A/G# A A/G# A A/G#

And it goes.....And it goes

[Verse]

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

Know that you're really not a dancer

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

But could it be the other people's smiles

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

They are two faced in the mirror

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

No vacation from here

A A/G# A A/G# A A/G# A A/G#

And you go.......And you go

[Chorus]

D F# G

The arrangement of lies

A D F# G

In a party of spies

A D F# G

Make a good one, do it right

A D F# G

The arrangement of lies

A D E

ooh ooh ooh

Know that you're really not a dancer

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

But could it be the other people's smiles

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

So you make a choice to leave the good life

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

To chase the palm trees swaying in the night

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

What you see in your mind

A A/G# F#m E Bm7 E E7

Look outside in dark light

A A/G# A A/G# A A/G# A A/G#

And you go.....And it goes

[Chorus]
