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
