Chords

[Verse 1]
         A             E           A     E
When you play pass the parcel with human body parts

A              E             A            E
Somebody might get head, but someone will get hurt

    A         E        A        E       A        E           A
And I'll sing what you like, if you shout it straight back at me
[Chorus]
        E              A
There‘s red stains all over the place

    C#m         G#m            A      B
But they're not blood, they're Cherryade

        E       A        E
We throw parties, you throw knives

     C#m      G#m          A             B
It's all the same if the fizzy drinks are nice
[Verse 2]
         A                      E
And it's great that you care so much about things

        A                      E
But you left talcum powder all over the bathroom

    A                          E
And yeah, it is great, you can blow her smoke rings

        A                           E
But you won't taste her lips if you do get to kiss her

    A    E    A               E        A             E        A
And it's your party, but I'll die if I want to, I'll die if I want to
[Chorus]
        E              A
There‘s red stains all over the place

    C#m         G#m            A      B
But they're not blood, they're Cherryade

        E       A        E
We throw parties, you throw knives

It's all the same if the fizzy drinks are nice
[Verse 3]
    A         E             A             E
The music was okay, but the fresh air was better, and

           A                    E              A                E
I couldn't tell if the singer's keyboard was a crutch or a synthesizer

       A                E         A
But it sounded like he'd broken a limb

E              A                  E        A
Each and every time he pushed the key down or in
[Chorus]
        E              A
There‘s red stains all over the place

    C#m         G#m            A      B
But they're not blood, they're Cherryade

        E       A        E
We throw parties, you throw knives

     C#m      G#m          A             B
It's all the same if the fizzy drinks are nice
[Bridge]
        E              A
There‘s red stains all over the place
(There's red stains all over the place)(But they are not blood, they're Cherryade)
    C#m         G#m            A      B
But they're not blood, they're Cherryade
(We throw parties, you throw knives)(It's all the same if the fizzy drinks are nice)
        E       A        E
We throw parties, you throw knives
(Oh no, it's my mistake) (you cut your tongue while taking a sip)
    C#m       G#m          A          B
It's all the same if the fizzy drinks are nice
(It's over, tell his mother) (the party is over) [Instrumental] C#m E F G# A D A C# G# A B [Outro]
     A           E
Team Campesinos, trick or treating

A                E                A
On your driveway in the middle of August

          E                    A                      E
One of us dressed as a zombie, one of us dressed as a pirate

          A                   E                     A          E
One of us dressed as a ninja, four of us dressed as schoolgirls

        A                    E
And I'm starin' you straight in the eyes

     A                       E                           A
I'm shakin' my head and I'm starin' you straight in your eyes
