Tone: [D]
Th[Bm]This was a triu[D]triumph [Bm] [D]
[Bm]I’m making a [D]note here: [Bm]huge succ[D]success [Bm]
[Em]It’s hard to over[A]state my satis[D]facti[Bm]on [D]
[Bm]Aperture [D]Science [Bm] [D]
[Bm]We do what we [D]must be[Bm]because we [D]can [Bm]
[Em]For the good of [A]all of us
[Bbm7]Except the ones who are dead
[F]But there’s no sense [C]crying over [Bb]every mis[F]mistake
[F]You just keep on [C]trying till you [Bb]run out of [F]cake
[Gm]And the science gets [C]done and you [F]make a neat [Dm]gun
[B]For the people who are [A]still a[D]alive [Bm] [D]
 
 
[Bm]I’m not even [D]angry [Bm] [D]
[Bm]I’m being [D]so sin[Bm]sincere right [D]now [Bm]
[Em]Even though you [A]broke my heart and [D]killed me[Bm]me [D]
[Bm]And tore me to [D]pieces [Bm] [D]
[Bm]And threw every [D]piece i[Bm]into a [D]fire [Bm]
[Em]As they burned it [A]hurt because
[Bbm7]I was so happy for you
[F]Now these points of [C]data make a [Bb]beautiful [F]line
[F]And we’re out of [C]beta, we’re re[Bb]releasing on [F]time
[Gm]So I’m glad I got [C]burned, think of [F]all the things we [Dm]learned
[B]For the people who are [A]still a[D]alive [Bm] [D]
 
 
[Bm]Go ahead and [D]leave me [Bm] [D]
[Bm]I think I’d pre[D]prefer to [Bm]stay in[D]inside [Bm]
[Em]Maybe you’ll find [A]someone else to [D]help you [Bm] [D]
[Bm]Maybe Black [D]Mesa [Bm] [D]
[Bm]That was a [D]joke, ha [Bm]ha, fat [D]chance [Bm]
[Em]Anyway this [A]cake is great
[Bbm7]It’s so delicious and moist
[F]Look at me still [C]talking when there’s [Bb]science to [F]do
[F]When I look out [C]there it makes me [Bb]glad I’m not [F]you
[Gm]I’ve experiments to [C]run, there is [F]research to be [Dm]done
[B]On the people who are [A]still a[D]alive [Bm] [D]
 
 
And bel[Bm]believe me I [D]am still a[Bm]alive [D]
I’m doing [Bm]science and [D]I’m still a[Bm]alive [D]
I feel [Bm]fantastic and [D]I’m still a[Bm]alive [D]
And while you’re [Bm]dying I’ll [D]be still a[Bm]alive [D]
And when you’re [Bm]dead I will [D]be still a[Bm]alive [D]
[D]Still a[Bm]alive
[D]Still a[Bm]alive
