F#m G#m
Oh I’m living in a noisy neighbourhood
F#m G#m
Writing words with a cruel pen
F#m G#m
And I play my guitar to the radio
F#m G#m
With a very, very shaky hand;
[Pre-Chorus]
F#m G#m
(Hear me singing): “shooby doo wop shooby doo wah”
F#m G#m
“shooby doo wop shooby doo wah”
E F#m
Oh my life feels so empty now
C#m D
Living here in this bourgeois town
E F#m
The T.V. news and their dumbassed views
C#m D
All I think of is getting out –
[Chorus]
A
Oh mama there is no shame
A
To be running to that great escape
C#m
There is still a little life in this world
D
Come on and dance to the Universal
A
Living with the Universal
A
Talking ’bout the Universal
C#m
Mister you’re a part of this world
D
Come let’s dance to the Universal
[Interlude]
| F#m | G#m | F#m | G#m | x2
[Verse 2]
F#m G#m
Now Leonardo he’s got plenty to say
F#m G#m
When he’s got his friends around him
F#m G#m
If I could get him in the light of day
F#m G#m
I’d like to turn him upside down, yeah
[Interlude]
| F#m | G#m | F#m | G#m | x2
[Pre-Chorus]
E F#m
I’m goin’ up to the north coastline
C#m D
The girls are pretty and the weather’s fine
E F#m
I’m tired of fightin’ and I’m tired of trying
C#m D
But I’ll walk the wire for you one more time
[Chorus]
A
Oh mama there is no shame
A
To be running to that gret escape
C#m
There is still a little life in his world
D
Come on and dance to th Universal
A
Living with the Universal
A
Talking ’bout the Universal
C#m
Mister you’re a part of this world
D
Come on let’s dance to the Universal
