               D       Bm 
This was a tri-umph 
D       Bm       D          Bm       D     Bm 
    I'm making a note here: huge suc-cess 
     Em           A              D        Bm     D 
It's hard to over-state my satis-faction 
Bm           D     Bm 
Aperture Sci-ence 
D      Bm         D       Bm       D     Bm 
    We do what we must be-cause we can 
Em              A                      Bb 
For the good of all of us, ex-cept the ones who are dead 

            F        C           Bb        F 
But there's no sense crying over every mis-take 
         F       C               Bb         F 
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake 
        Gm           C            F           Dm 
And the science gets done and you make a neat gun 
        Bb         A           D     Bm 
For the people who are still a-live 

D     Bm     D     Bm 

D       Bm       D       Bm 
    I'm not even angry 
D       Bm        D      Bm         D     Bm 
        I'm being so sin-cere right now 
Em              A                  D          Bm     D 
Even though you broke my heart and killed me 
    Bm             D     Bm 
And tore me to pie-ces 
D       Bm          D        Bm   D     Bm 
    And threw every piece in-to a fire 
Em                A                     Bb 
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you 

          F         C           Bb        F 
Now these points of data make a beautiful line 
          F      C              Bb         F 
And we're out of beta, we're re-leasing on time 
       Gm         C                F                 Dm 
So I'm glad I got burned, think of all the things we learned 
        Bb         A           D     Bm 
For the people who are still a-live 

D     Bm     D     Bm 

D   Bm           D        Bm 
    Go ahead and leave me 
D     Bm            D      Bm      D      Bm 
    I think I'd pre-fer to stay in-side 
Em                A               D         Bm     D 
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you 
Bm          D      Bm 
Maybe Black Me-sa 
D   Bm         D        Bm      D       Bm 
    That was a joke, ha ha, fat chance 
Em          A                          Bb 
Anyway this cake is great, It's so del-icious and moist 

        F        C                    Bb         F 
Look at me still talking when there's science to do 
       F        C                 Bb           F 
When I look out there it makes me glad I'm not you 
        Gm           C             F              Dm 
I've ex-periments to run, there is research to be done 
       Bb         A           D      Bm 
On the people who are still a-live 

       D          Bm         D     Bm 
And be-lieve me I am still a-live 
          D           Bm          D     Bm 
I'm doing science and I'm still a-live 
           D          Bm          D     Bm 
I feel fan-tastic and I'm still a-live 
             D          Bm         D     Bm 
While you're dying I'll be still a-live 
                D           Bm         D     Bm 
And when you're dead I will be still a-live 
        D      Bm 
Still A-live 

Still A-live
