Made up, you stayed up, how could it be?

 I heard a call for a voodoo doll, but after all
F            C           Bb                 F
 Pose for a Polaroid and all start for the wall
F               C             F          C
 Anybody got a time machine I am unclean
F              C             Bb                F
 Step back to move ahead or wait it out in between

  Dm            Bb       F            C
Played out, you made out, oh what a scene
Dm           Bb      F                 A
Makeup, the gold cup, you're just a screen

 Wave your arms and leave the ground
