Intro Chords

F#F#       C#C#       E MajorE        BB        x2


VERSE 1
E MajorE
November promises it seems,
E MajorE
Broken February dreams
E MajorE
That don?t come true,
E MajorE
But do you remember me?
E MajorE    E MajorE    FF      G+G
I don?t remember you
E MajorE    D#D#   C#C#   BB      A augmentedA
Were you the one who liked to sing?
A augmentedA
Or just some other one, it?s strange
E MajorE    D#D#   C#C#   BB      A augmentedA
How Paige remains she stays the same
A augmentedA
And we?re always changing

CHORUS 1

F#F#             C#C#
We are driving on the ceiling,
      E MajorE     BB
There are aliens on motorcycles,
F#F#          C#C#
Riding in the radio
      E MajorE             BB
While we destroy the world
      F#F#        C#C#
I said, Oh oh oh no no,
        E MajorE              BB
And the news it read the future?s dead,
      F#F#           C#C#
When Elvis went to Hollywood,
E MajorE      BB
That?s when?. [STOP]

VERSE 2
E MajorE
So long goodbye,
E MajorE
The taste of wedding cakes,
E MajorE
The sound of nursery rhymes,
E MajorE
The ghost of Fredriksberg,
E MajorE
Of Alex Chilton,
E MajorE
Of Victor Frankenstein,
E MajorE    D#D#   C#C#   BB
The girl you always loved,
    A augmentedA
The one you have no memory of,
E MajorE    D#D#   C#C#   BB
It?s strange how Paige remains,
            A augmentedA
She paid for rain on the invasion

CHORUS 2
F#F#             C#C#
We are driving on the ceiling,
      E MajorE     BB
There are aliens on motorcycles,
F#F#          C#C#
Hiding in the radio
      E MajorE             BB
While we devour the world
      F#F#        C#C#
I said, Oh oh oh no no,
        E MajorE              BB
And the future said the news is dead
      F#F#           C#C#
When Elvis went to Hollywood,
E MajorE      BB
That?s when?. [STOP]

VERSE 3

          E MajorE     BB
The god of Maine proclaimed,
    A augmentedA
The last evacuation of a dream.
    E MajorE
The gospel screamed
          A augmentedA
A majorA song of movie stars
                E MajorE
And girlie magazines
E MajorE    D#D#   C#C#   BB
The spaceman too
         A augmentedA
From somewhere far away

You have to say it?s strange
E MajorE    D#D#   C#C#   BB
We wait in vain,
            A augmentedA
The rocket?s came and now we?re fading


CHORUS 3
F#F#             C#C#
We are hiding on the ceiling,
      E MajorE     BB
There are aliens on motorcycles,
F#F#          C#C#
Riding from the radio
      E MajorE             BB
While they destroy the world
      F#F#        C#C#
I said, Oh oh oh no no,
        E MajorE              BB
And the paper?s said the king is dead
      F#F#           C#C#
When Elvis went to Hollywood,
E MajorE      BB
That?s when?. [STOP]
