     C                Am
         Sha-la-la,      hey!


[Verse 1]
                             C            Am
                             Let's...
                             C            Am
      Find a dark and lonely corner
                             C            Am
Grass growing up through the floorboards
                             C            Am
 And kiss me over the garden gate


[Verse 2]
                                  C         Am
                              Now this...
                                  C         Am
             Must be the deep and dismal
                                  C         Am
And you're as pretty as a prairie thistle
                                  C         Am
             In the early morning rain        Yeah!


[Chorus]
                       F                    G
       If you had your way would you lay me down?
                       F                       G
Would you shew out the ghost that spooked this town?
                       Am                  G
           If I had my way I'd swallow the dark
                       F                             G
                          And get this party started again  Yeah!

[Refrain]
C            Am
  Sha-la-la,    sha-la-la

C                               Am
  Gon' get this party started!    Gon' get this party started!


[Verse 3]
                             C           Am
                             Let's...
                             C           Am
Be the red wine stain on the carpet
                             C           Am
          Innocence after we lost it
                             C           Am
          The ballad of everything


[Verse 4]
                         C         Am
                     Oh, bowed...
                         C         Am
Was the chrome on a motorcycle
                         C         Am
    The gold of a broken idol
                         C         Am
         Babe, on a riverbank


[Chorus]
                       F                    G
       If you had your way would you lay me down?
                       F                       G
Would you shew out the ghost that spooked this town?
                       Am                  G
           If I had my way I'd swallow the dark
                       F                             G
                          And get this party started again  Yeah!

[Refrain]
                      C            Am
                        Sha-la-la,    sha-la-la  (repeat x2)

                      C                               Am
                         Gon' get this party started!    Gon' get this party started!   (repeat x4)

                      C        Am

                      C        Am
Red wine stain on the carpet
