Verse 1 

A
It's 8 O'clock and I'm feeling fine
    F#m
I'm out on a date tonight
     D
In a candle lit restaurant
                 A
Down by the riverside
A
Everythings going alright I guess
    F#m
She took down my number and home address
D
Everything was going perfectly
A
Until

Chorus

 A
It backfired at the disco
    F#m
she slapped me at the disco
  D                           A    E
I did something I'll never forget

Verse 2 

         A
It was a chat up line built not to impress
       F#m
More a sleezy remark on her whorish dress
D                                       A
My wires crossed like they'd never done before
          A       
Well it's 3 O'clock and I'm feeling shite
    F#m
I'm going home alone tonight
D
Everything was going perfectly
A
Until

Chorus

 A
It backfired at the disco
    F#m
she slapped me at the disco
  D                           A    
I did something I'll never forget
      A
Yeah it backfired at the disco
    F#m
she slapped me at the disco
  D                           A    
I made a move when it was well out of context

Outro

A
It backfired at the disco
F#m
We were dancing at the disco
D
It backfired at the disco
A
We were dancing at the disco
A
Yeah it backfired at the disco
F#m
When she slapped me at the disco
D
It backfired at the disco
A
We were dancing at the disco
