Lights Go Down

Bm Em B


[Verse 1]
Em
Hello
                  D
Pardon me if I forget your name
    C
But not every hollow is sleepy as this one,
    B
but heads roll just the same


[Verse 2]
Em
Oh lord
                       D
Dressed like you're so uptown
   C
Parade through the ballrooms
                           B*
Decay in your costumes and dance


[Chorus]
                    C
Until the lights go down
                 D  C
Until the lights go down
                 D  C
Until the lights go down
                 D  C
Until the lights go down
                      D  B
Dance till the lights go down


[Verse 3]
Em
Come now
                   D
Is that any way to talk to me?
    C
Corrupting the young with your uncivil tongue
     B
What a shame if you misspeak now


[Verse 4]
Em
Somehow
                          D
Danced 'til the lights go down
     C
It's curtains for you, join the back of the queue
            B                                             C
And we'll break our necks like we do when the lights go down


[Chorus]
                 D  C
Until the lights go down
                 D  C
Until the lights go down
                      D  C
Dance till the lights go down
 D
(Down, down)


[Bridge]
Em             C              B              C
Shake when you haunt me, like you were a ghost town

Em D C B


[Verse 5]
Em
Oh no, what have we here?
D
Oh lord, the thief of the year!
C
Steal every heart from the boys that you're touching
B*
And dance


[Chorus]
                    C
Until the lights go down
                 D  C
Until the lights go down
                      D  C
Dance 'til the lights go down
                 D  C
Until the lights go down
                      D
Dance 'til the lights go

Em
Oh no, what have we here?

(Until the lights go down)
D
Oh lord, the thief of the year

(Until the lights go down)
C
Steal every heart from the boys that you're touching
B
And dance
                    C
Until the lights go down
