[A] .
I don't know about y'all, [Em] but we're going to be in a party tonight.
[Am] If y'all ready to party, get up on your feet, let's dance.

Heard .
.
of a family loaded with weapons, packed up and ready to go.
.
Heard of some grave sites out by the highway, a place where nobody knows.
.
Sight of gunfire, off in the distance, I'm getting used to it now.
.
Lived in a brown snow map, lived in a ghetto well, I've lived all over this town.
[E] .
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no foolin' around.
.
This ain't no mud club or CBTV, I ain't got time for that now.
[Em] .
[Am] Spent the message to the receiver, hope for an answer someday.
I got three passports, I got a couple of visas, you don't even know about me.
[D] [Am] .
High on the hillside, trucks are loading, everything's ready to roll.
I [Bm] [Am].
sleep in the daytime, I work in the nighttime, well, I ain't never get [E] home.
.
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no foolin' [G] around.
[A] [E] .
This ain't no mud club or CBTV, I ain't got time for that now.
[Am] .
[Bm] [Am] .
[Bm] [Am] .
[D] [G] [Am] .
.
.
[Em] [Am] .
.
[E] .
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no foolin' around.
.
I'd rather hold you and I'd rather kiss you, but I ain't got time for [Em] that now.
.
Heard about Houston, [F] heard about [G] Detroit, heard about Pittsburgh, PA.
[Dm] [Am] .
I ain't got no peanut butter, but that's okay.
.
[F] Ain't got no [G] groceries, [C] no [Am] peanut butter to last [Em] a couple of [C] days.
But I ain't got no speakers and I ain't got no headphones [Am] and I ain't got no records to play.
.
[E] I stay in college, why go to that school?.
Don't know any different this time.
Hand me the letter, can't send no postcard.
I ain't got nothing at [D] [D#].
[E] all.
This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no foolin' [D] around.
.
[D#] [E] I'd love to hold you and I'd love to kiss you, but I ain't got time for that now.
[Am] Couple in transit, got through the roadblock.
We blended in with the crowd.
.
We got computers, we're tapping phone lines.
I know that that ain't a [G] lot.
[Am] .
We dress like students, well, we dress like housewives.
Or in a suit and a tie.
.
I've changed my hairstyle so many times now.
.
Ain't the shiver, I feel so tender.
We make a pretty good team.
.
Don't get exhausted, well, I'll do some climbing.
You're gonna get to some sleep.
Burn all my notebooks, woo, I'll do my notebooks.
They won't help me survive.
My chest is aching and it burns like a furnace, well, the burning keeps me alive.
.
.

.
[D] [Am] .
.
.
.
.
The burning keeps me alive.
