[Verse 1]
A F#m
Let me put my arms around your head, gee, its hot, lets go to bed,
E E7
Don't forget to turn on the light, don't laugh babe, it'll be alright,
A F#m
Pour me out another phone, I'll ring and see if your friends are home,
E
Per - haps the strange ones, in the dome,
E7
Can lend us a book we can read up alone,
D A Amaj7
And try to get it on like once be - fore,
D A Amaj7
When people stared in Jaggers' eyes, and scored,
F#m B
Like the video films we ...saw!
[Chorus]
C D G G7/F E7/G# Am Am/G
His name was always Buddy, and he'd shrug, and ask to stay,
D/F# G C G/B D
She'd sigh like Twig the Wonder Kid, and turn her face a - way,
C D G G7/F E7/G# Am Am/G
She's un - certain if she likes him, but she knows she really loves him,
D/F# G
It's a crash course for the ravers,
C G/B Am C/G D/F# D/E C G/B Am C/G D/F# D/E D D/C
It's a drive--------in Satur - day! | / / / / | / / / / |
[Verse 3]
A F#m
Jung the foreman prayed, at work, neither hands, nor limbs, would burst,
E E7
It's ....hard enough to keep formation, with this fall out saturation,
A F#m
Cursing at the Astronette, that stands in steel by his cabinet,
E E7
He's ...crashing out with Sylvian, the bureau supply for ageing men,
D A Amaj7
With ...snorting head he gazes to the shore,
D A Amaj7
Where once it raged, a sea that raged no more,
F#m B
Like the video films he saw!
[Chorus]
C D G G7/F E7/G# Am Am/G
His name was always ...Buddy, 'cause he'd shrug, and ask to stay,
D/F# G C G/B D
And she'd sigh like 'Twig the Wonder Kid', and turn her face a - way,
C D G G7/F E7/G# Am Am/G
She's un - certain if she likes him, but she ...knows she really loves him,
D/F# G
It's a crash course for the ravers,
C G/B Am C/G D/F# D/E D D/C
It's a drive--------in ...Satur- day, yeah!
[Chorus]
C D G G7/F E7/G# Am Am/G
His name was always ....Buddy, and he'd shrug, and ask to stay,
D/F# G C G/B D
And she'd sigh like 'Twig the Wonder Kid', and turn her face a - way,
C D G G7/F E7/G# Am Am/G
She's un - certain if she likes him, but she knows she really loves him,
D/F# G
It's a crash course for the ravers,
C G/B Am C/G D/F# D/E C G/B Am C/G D/F# D/E D
It's a drive----------in Satur- day! Yeah, yeah! | / / / / |
