[Verse 1]
G D Yeah you believe you're the king of the jungle, G D You got the t-shirt, do you know how the song goes. C D You're looking good but the fact is you're lazy, C D But people love you 'cause you're funny and crazy. G D 7-11, buy a six pack o'beer, G D If there's a party you're the last one to leave it. C D It's not too late, we can stop all the dreamin', C D Get out this town, look around, we don't need it.
[Pre-Chorus]
D C Hell and heaven, they can wait for you, D So go and do all the things that you want to do.
[Chorus]
G D So set me free, C'est La Vie, G D I said, come on pretty baby, take a chance on me, C D It's a shame on me cause I didn't see, C D That you were looking at me baby by the Ferris wheel.
[Verse 2]
G D I know you're cool but you think that you're chocolate, G D Get off my nerves, cause I still got a soft spot. C D You look at me, you think I got all the answers, C D Maybe I do, but I'm scared takin' chances. G D Floating our bottle, but we aint sailing nowhere, G D Rip out the cork, get the wind into our hair. C D Get off the train in the rain at the station, C D Knock back the drink, cause we think the boat's sinkin'.
[Pre-Chorus]
D Hell and heaven, they can wait for you, D So go and do all the things that you want to do.
[Chorus 2]
G D So set me free C'est la vie, G D I said, come on pretty baby, take a dance with me. C D I said, a shame on me cause I didn't see, C D That you were looking at me baby by the Ferris wheel. G D I said a stand by me, stick around with me, G D Cause it's a long walk back to where we've just been. C D I said, a hey there baby so you're banking on me, C D I just I wish I never found her but hey C'est la vie.
[Bridge]
D C I said they're playing our song on the radio, D D And we're singing out loud, all the words that we know Em D And it's a long tongue Sally pissing off Peggy Sue Em D Oh it's about me and you cause it's time that we grew, C And you said yeah yeah yeah come along with me, C And then you think all the things that you want to see, D I said a woah pretty baby come and take my hand D D I'm gonna shake you all night, baby yes I can, wooah!
[Verse 3]
G D Such as life in the rear view mirror, G D The open road up ahead is the future. D C Time came round and wrecked our place, D C But when I look back now I got a smile on my face.
[Chorus 3]
G D Come on baby take a chance with me, G D Stick around on the town if you wanna see. C D We don't belong anywhere is what she said to me, C D So come on, take a dance and spin around with me. G D She said shout now baby, set me free C'est la vie, G D I said I'll stand by me, stick around with me. C D And when the street lights fall, you can buy my beer, C D Cause when the morning light comes, I'll be gone C'est la vie.
[Outro]
G Yeah yeah, G We don't belong anywhere, G We don't belong anywhere, C D We don't belong anywhere. G Set me free! G We don't belong anywhere, G We don't belong anywhere, C We don't belong anywhere, C We don't belong anywhere.
