Chords

[Chorus]
Eb      Ab
I’m on fire

F                   Bb
and now I think I’m ready

   Eb     Ab
to bust a move

        F                 Bb
Check it out I’m rocking steady
Go! [Instrumental] Eb Ab F Bb (x3) Eb Ab F Gb [Verse]
Eb
Betty won’t stop listening to modern rock

     C               Bb
How she hates to be alone

Eb
I try to compensate her lack of love with coffee cake

C                         Bb
Ice cream and a bottle of ten dollar wine she says hey

Eb
I rock the Haro sport, I rock the cow girl blues

C                            Bb
I rock too fast for love I’m footloose in my Velcro shoes

Eb
What’s up with Will and Grace? I don’t get drum and bass

C                    Bb
The future freaks me out
[Instrumental] Eb C Bb Eb C [Chorus]
Eb      Ab
I’m on fire

F                   Bb
and now I think I’m ready

   Eb     Ab
to bust a move

        F                 Bb
Check it out I’m rocking steady

       Eb          Ab
To the beat in my head

        F         Bb
It goes oh, oh-oh-oh

             Eb        Ab    F
I know that she’s the only one

            Gb
I’d rather waste our time together
N.C. Yeah, ‘cause we can get down [Instrumental] Eb C Bb Eb C [Verse]
Eb
Betty can’t quit carving question marks in my wrist

C                   Bb
How come we’re so alone

Eb
We waste away the days with nicotine and television samples

C               Bb
From an era we hate to admit we embrace

Eb
We fail to represent, we fail to be content

C                        Bb
We fail at everything we ever even try to attempt

Eb
And so the story goes as only Betty knows

C                     Bb
It’s time to take control (Get Down)
[Chorus]
Eb      Ab
I’m on fire

F                   Bb
and now I think I’m ready

   Eb     Ab
to bust a move

        F                 Bb
Check it out I’m rocking steady

       Eb          Ab
To the beat in my head

        F         Bb
It goes oh, oh-oh-oh

             Eb        Ab    F
I know that she’s the only one

            Gb
I’d rather waste my time with her
[Bridge]
Eb       Ab
Betty, I need you

   F
I miss you

    Bb
I’m so alone

    Eb
without you

    Ab
To call up on the

F
weekends with my

Bb
cellular phone

Eb                           Ab
Betty it’s so hard to relate

                        F
To the whole human race

                            Bb
I don’t know where to begin

                            Eb
I don’t know where to begin

                        Ab
If we can both find a way

                          F
To do the things that we say

                           Bb
We might not sit in our rooms
And drink our daydreams away
Eb
Betty, I’m a dreamer

Ab
I’m not a vicious schemer

   Gb
Oh Betty won’t you.. ah fuck it
[Chorus]
Eb      Ab
I’m on fire

F                   Bb
and now I think I’m ready

   Eb     Ab
to bust a move

        F                 Bb
Check it out I’m rocking steady

       Eb          Ab
To the beat in my head

        F         Bb
It goes oh, oh-oh-oh

             Eb        Ab    F
I know that she’s the only one

            Gb

N.C. Yeah, ‘cause we can get down
