Verse 1:

            F5                 Bb5               C5
There were roman candles and Catherine wheels outside
F5                 Bb5     C5
Inside, all was deadly quiet
 F5           Bb5       C5       F5             C5   Bb5
Corner cut, medium weight and I arrive late
 F5                                    Bb5                 C5
I caught you spelling baby names with sparklers on your patio
     F5   Bb5      C5        F5                            Bb5    C5
And you didn?t know, that I?d been writing letters to other girls
    F5                Bb5     C5
In shaky, shaky handwriting



Bridge 1:

    D5
We swooned like 50?s housewives
                Bb5
Buzzing like a hive
 D5                             Bb5    C5
  The room is spinning faster than a 45


Chorus 1:

    F5               Bb5   C5
And we come alive
F5              Bb5    C5
We come alive
F5  Bb5   C5   F5   Bb5  C5
We come alive


Bass Solo(same F5 Bb5 C5 chords)


Verse 2:

     F5                       Bb5         C5  
Well you were an octopus and I was an orang-utan
     F5                         Bb5           C5
And everybody in there saw the way that we carried on
      F5                             Bb5     C5                 F5  Bb5 C5
But everyone who knows me, knows I make up all these stories


Bridge 2:

    D5
We swooned like 50?s housewives
                Bb5
Buzzing like a hive
 D5                             Bb5    C5
  The room is spinning faster than a 45


Chorus 2:(2x)

    F5               Bb5   C5
And we come alive
F5              Bb5    C5
We come alive
F5  Bb5   C5   F5   Bb5  C5
We come alive
F5               Bb5   C5
we come alive
F5              Bb5    C5
We come alive
F5  Bb5   C5   F5   Bb5  C5
We come alive
