Song:
(Play main riff throughout verses)
This is the kitt I can't compare
A delicate new arrival
Check the commute I do declare
Let's sing a new revival
Chemical circus at the pub
Mentally she's preparted
Cut me a check I'll cut your rug
Later we'll get bombarded
Chorus:
A
'Cause everybody knows
C#7
The game is full of highs and lows
D
Like your mother said
F
Girl, your father is dead
A
Everybody knows
C#7
That life is full of highs and lows
D
Is there always red
F
In your wedding bed
Everybody knows

Officer, please, I just got there
Traveled from door to door
Haven't you seen my girlfriends hair
What are we looking for
