lyrics

Dm Dm(Db)
It’s been said, we wore it well

Dress to nines

no kiss no tell
Dm Dm(Db)
We do, we do because of you

D with ascending A/A#/B/C
Each time this all happens again

Just take it my friend

You’ll never make it till you fake it

G Em7 D D7
Carry me away
G Em6/Bb/Db D D7
All the mice will play
G B7 Em C7
Come by knocking when the house starts a rocking
Em6/Bb/Db D7 G
While the cat’s away


When we swing upon a star

There’s no chaperone we closed the bar

We do, we do because of you


D with ascending A/A#/B/C
Each time this all happens again

Just take it my friend

You’ll never make it till you fake it

G Em7 D D7
Carry me away
G Em6/Bb/Db D D7
All the mice will play
G B7 Em C7
Come by knocking when the house starts a rocking
Em6/Bb/Db D7 G
While the cat’s away


A
Grab your dream while the crowd still screams

It won’t last forever
A7
Live it well never kiss and tell

It won’t last forever
