[Em] Tell me the part about the candles.
Um
Do not pretend you don't have it memorized.
The only ones for me are the mad ones.
Mad to [D] talk, mad to [G] be saved, desirous of everything at the same time.
If we're [D] gonna go we gotta go tonight.
[Em] The ones who never [D] yawn or [G] say a commonplace thing but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the sky.
If we're gonna go we gotta go tonight, go tonight, go
[C] tonight. [D] For what?
You're taking [Em] the risk.
[C] You're the [D] fools who [Em] will never [G] learn.
[C]
[D] Push to [Em] the edge, out on the [C] ledge.
Will you [D] die out [G] or burn?
[D] Don't ask if [Em] you care.
[C] No, [D] that's a [F] mistake [D] girls make.
Cause [Bm] those good [C] old boys, they had [Bm] their good [F] old [G] days.
But now [Am] they're gone and now [G] their world is ours [F] to take.
[G] [D] We're mad [E] to go, mad to try, [G] mad [D] to be alive.
We're [Em] chasing stars, a thousand suns.
The [C] mad
[D] ones who [G]
won't [D]
walk
[G] may kick the door.
[D] To reach for more we [Em] make the rules, we make the vow to [D] be mad.
Girl, where we [A] madder now?
Okay, first things first, you have to go tell that TA I'm not coming back.
What?
If we're gonna go we gotta go tonight.

Where are my keys?
[B] Just calm down, there's [E] planning involved.
What are we living on?
[F#m] Who's paying our [Bm] cell phone bills?

If we're gonna go we gotta go tonight, go tonight, go tonight.
You're drunk.
You're drunk.
If we're gonna go we gotta go tonight, go tonight, go tonight.

Go tonight, go tonight.
