E                        G#m                       F#
Oh God, I'm clean out of air in my lungs, it's all gone
                                                        E
Played it so nonchalant, it's time we danced with the truth
G#m                  F#
Move along with the truth, ooh-ooh (hey)
E                               G#m                           F#
We're sleeping through all the days, I'm acting like I don't see
                                          E
Every ribbon you used to tie yourself to me

       G#m
But my hips have missed your hips,
so let's get to know the kicks
          F#
Will you sway with me, go astray with me?

Chorus:
       E
(Ah-ha-ah) King and queen of the weekend
G#m                               F#
Ain't a pill that could touch our rush
(but what will we do when we're sober?)
E
When you dream with a fever
G#m                              F#
Bet you wish you could touch our rush
(but what will we do when we're sober?)
E
These are the games of the weekend
G#m                            F#
We pretend that we just don't care, but we care
(but what will we do when we're sober?)
E
Ah, when you dream with a fever
G#m                               F#
Bet you wish you could touch our rush
(but what will we do when we're sober?)

Oh, God, I'm closing my teeth
Around this liquour-wet lime
Midnight, lose my mind
I know you're feeling it too
Can we keep up with the ruse?
Ah ah (Hey)
B-bodies all through my house
I know this story by heart:
Jack and Jill get fucked up and possessive
When it get dark

But my hips have missed your hips
So let's get to know the kicks
Will you sway with me?
Go astray with me?
(Ah-ha)

Chorus

 E
Midnight, we're fading
     G#m
'Til daylight, we're jaded
    F#
We know that it's over, in the morning
                                E
You'll be dancing with all the heartache
                     G#m
And the treason, the fantasies of leaving
        F#
But we know that when it's over, in the morning
                       E  G#m
You'll be dancing with us, oh
             F#
Dancing with us, oh
(but what will we do when we're sober?)
                       E
You'll be dancing with us
                           G#m
(can you feel it, can you feel it)
             F#
Dancing with us, us
(but what will we do when we're sober?)
