[Verse 1]
C                           Em                       D
  Oh God, I'm clean out of air in my lungs, it's all gone
                        D                              C
Played it so nonchalant, it's time we danced with the truth
Em                      D         D
   Move along with the truth, ooh-ooh (hey)
C                                 Em                           D
  We're sleeping through all the days, I'm acting like I don't see 
                  D                      C
Every ribbon you used to tie yourself to me
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
       Em
But my hips have missed your hips, so let's get to know the kicks
          D
Will you sway with me, go astray with me? 
 
 
[Chorus 1]
       C
(Ah-ha-ah) King and queen of the weekend
Em                                   D
   Ain't a pill that could touch our rush (but what will we do when we're sober?)
C
   When you dream with a fever
Em                                  D
   Bet you wish you could touch our rush (but what will we do when we're sober?)
C
These are the games of the weekend
Em                               D
   We pretend that we just don't care, but we care (but what will we do when we're sober?)
C
Ah, when you dream with a fever 
Em                                  D
   Bet you wish you could touch our rush (but what will we do when we're sober?)

D                       D                          C
Limelight, lose my mind, I know you're feeling it too
Em                          D          D
   Can we keep up with the ruse, ah-ah-ah (hey)
C                          Em                         D
  B-bodies all through my house, I know this story by heart
N.C.                                                       C
Jack and Jill get fucked up and possessive when they get dark
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
       Em
But my hips have missed your hips, so let's get to know the kicks
          D

[Bridge]
C
Midnight, we're fading
     Em
'Til daylight, we're jaded
   D                           D
We know that it's over, in the morning
                               C
You'll be dancing with all the heartache
                     Em
And the treason, the fantasies of leaving
       D                                D
But we know that when it's over, in the morning
                        C  Em
You'll be dancing with us, oh
              D
Dancing with us, oh (but what will we do when we're sober?)
                        C                           Em
You'll be dancing with us (can you feel it, can you feel it)
              D
Dancing with us, us (but what will we do when we're sober?)
 
 
[Outro]
