Am                        D
Girls, don't forget your pearls
                 Am
And all of your horses
                  D
As you make your way
Across the pond
Am                        D
Girls, don't forget your curls
                Am
And all of your corsets
              D
Memorize them in a little song

F
Shake it up
                             D
Throw your hands up and get loose
Cut a rug
                       F
Lean into the fucking youth
Choreo
                           D
We just want the fucking truth
(told by the frightened)

Chorus:
          Am
Is it the end of an era
          D
Is it the end of America
          Am
Is it the end of an era
          D
Is it the end of America
Am
No, oh
     Am7         D  
It's only the beginning
    D         Am
If we hold on to hope
      Am7           D  
We'll have a happy ending
                   F
When the world was at war before
         D
We just kept dancing
                   F
When the world was at war before
         D
We just kept dancing

Boys, don't forget your toys
And take all of your money
If you find you're in a foreign land
Boys, don't make too much noise
And don't try to be funny
Other people may not understand

Shake it up, throw your hands up and get loose
Cut a rug, lean into the fuckin' youth
Choreo, we just want the fuckin' truth
(Told by the fake news)

Chorus

                  F
And we'll do it again
Oh my god, dizzy from loving you
             D
From do it again
Oh my god, dizzy from loving you
              F
We'll do it again
Did it from, dizzy from loving you
              D
We'll do it again
When the world was at war

Chorus:
Is it the end of an era?
Is it the end of America?
Is it the end of an era?
Is it the end of America?
When the world was at war before
We just kept dancin'
When the world was at war before
We just kept dancin'

And we'll do it again
And we'll do it again
