[C]

[Verse 1]
November [Am]promises, [C]it seems,[F]
Are broken February [C]dreams
that don't come [Am]true
[C]Do you remem[F]ber me?
I don't remember [C]you
Were you the [Am]one who
[C]liked [F]to sing?
Or just some other one?
It's [C]strange how Paige
[Am]remains
[G]She stays [F]the same
We're always changing
[C]We are

[Verse 2]
[D]driving on [Am]the ceiling
There are [C]aliens [G]on motorcycles
[D]Riding in the [Am]ra dio while
[C]we destroy [G]the world
I said [D]"Oh! Oh! Oh [Am]No! No!"
[C]The news it [G]read: The Future's
Dead"
When [D]Elvis went [Am]to Hollywood
[C]That's [G]when [D]everything went

[Interlude 1]
wrong
[D][Am][C][G][D][Am][C][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]"So lon[G]g. Goodbye[Am]"
[G]The taste of wed[F]ding cake
The sound of nursery [C]rhymes
The [G]ghosts of Fred[Am]ericksburg,
[G]of Ale[F]x Chilton,
[C]Of Vic[F]tor Frankenstein
[C]The gir[G]l you'll alway[Am]s lov[G]e
The [F]one you have no memory of
It's [C]strange how [G]Paige remain[Am]s
She [G]prays for [F]rain on The Invasion
[G]We [C]are driving

[Verse 4]
[D]on the[Am] ceiling
There are [C]aliens on [G]motorcycles
[D]Hiding in the [Am]ra dio
while [C]we devour [G]the world
I said [D]"Oh! Oh! Oh [Am]no! No!"
The Fu[C]ture said: [G]The News Is Dead
When [D]Elvis went [Am]to Hollywood
[C]That's [G]when [Am]ever[F]ything went wrong

[Verse 5]
The God of [Am]Maine pro[C]claims
[F]The last evacuation of The [C]Dream
The gos[G]pels [Am]scream [C]a song of
[F]movie stars and girlie [C]magazines
And spacemen [Am]too from
[G]somewhere [F]far away
You have to say it's [C]strange
We [G]prayed in [Am]vain
The rock[G]ets [F]came and
now we're fading

[Verse 6]
We are [D]hiding on [Am]the ceiling
There are [C]aliens [G]on motorcycles
[D]Riding from the [Am]ra dio
while [C]they destroy the [G]world
I said [D]"Oh! Oh! Oh [Am]no! No!"
The pa[C]pers said: [G]The King Is Dead
When [D]Elvis went [Am]to Hollywood
[C]That's [G]when [Am]ever[Am]ything went [D]wr[G]ong
