::Verse 1 played with Riff A::
I wanna be your mainchild
Lets all go-it hog wild
She said ill see you later
I always gravitate to her
Lets all meet at the station
No heavy concentration
We could all hook up there
The kids are all right there
::Chorus::
D A
Should we go out later
D A C B A
Showtime for strangers
::Verse 2 - play Riff A all the way muted::
Dontcha give a *** anymore now
She's givin up on you now
Do it for the kids they say
It ain't about you anyway
::Verse 3 - same as other verses::
I say we're all grown up now
And sex ain't so safe now
It's all in the groove they say
Doesn't matter anyway
::chorus::
D A
Should we go out later

Showtime for strangers

Keep me runnin' like a deer in the headlights
All for nothing I thought
Just the ransom I had bought

About the day I tried to tame her
Never tried to blame her

Just a game that I had bought

Let's all meet at the station
No heavy concentration
The kids are all alright there
::Chorus - same chords as others::
Should we go (should we go) out later
