[D]And out in the valley wa[Dsus2]rm and [D]clean
The[G] little ones sit by their TV screens
[D]No thoughts to t[Dsus2]hink [D]
[G]No tears to cry
[G]All su[A]cked [Bm]dry
Down to the very[A] last brea[G]th
[Em]Bartender what is wr[A]ong with me?

But then it was over
[D]we ohhed and aahed
we drove our raci[Dsus2]ng cars [D]
[G]We ate our last few jars of cavier
[D]And somewhere out there in the stars
A ke[Dsus2]en-eyed look[D]-out
[G]Spied a flickering light
Our last hurr[D]ah
Our last hurr[G]ah
[Em]And when they found our shadows [A]
[Em]Grouped around the TV sets [A]
[Em]They ran down every lead[A]
[Em]They repeated every test[A]
[Bm]They checked out all the data on the[G]ir lists
And then t[Bm]he alien anthropologists
G Em < before playing Em hit 2nd fret on low E
Admitted they were still perplexed
[D]But on eliminating every other reason
[Dsus2]For our[D] sad[G] demise
[D]They logged the explana[Dsus2]tion le[D]ft [G]
[G]This species has amused i[Bm]tself to death
Bm A G Em < Step from G to Em with the F[Bm]repea[A]t an[G]d fa[Em]de
