[Verse 1]
G D
Yeah you believe you’re the king of the jungle,
G D
You got the t-shirt, do you know how the song goes.
C D
You’re looking good but the fact is you’re lazy,
C D
But people love you ‘cause you’re funny and crazy.
G D
7-11, buy a six pack o’beer,
G D
If there’s a party you’re the last one to leave it.
C D
It’s not too late, we can stop all the dreamin’,
C D
Get out this town, look around, we don’t need it.
[Pre-Chorus]
D
Hell and heaven, they can wait for you,
D
So go and do all the things that you want to do.
[Chorus]
G D
So set me free, C’est La Vie,
G D
I said, come on pretty baby, take a chance on me,
C D
It’s a shame on me cause I didn’t see,
C D
That you were looking at me baby by the Ferris wheel.
[Verse 2]
G D
I know you’re cool but you think that you’re chocolate,
G D
Get off my nerves, cause I still got a soft spot.
C D
You look at me, you think I got all the answers,
C D
Maybe I do, but I’m scared takin’ chances.
G D
Floating our bottle, but we aint sailing nowhere,
G D
Rip out the cork, get the wind into our hair.
C D
Get off the train in the rain at the station,
C D
Knock back the drink, cause we think the boat’s sinkin’.
[Pre-Chorus]
D
Hell and heaven, they can wait for you,
D
So go and do all the things that you want to do.
[Chorus 2]
G D
So set me free C’est la vie,
G D
I said, come on pretty baby, take a dance with me.
C D
I said, a shame on me cause I didn’t see,
C D
That you were looking at me baby by the Ferris wheel.
G D
I said a stand by me, stick around with me,
G D
Cause it’s a long walk back to where we’ve just been.
C D
I said, a hey there baby so you’re banking on me,
C D
I just I wish I never found her but hey C’est la vie.
[Bridge]
G D
I said they’re playing our song on the radio,
G D
And we’re singing out loud, all the words that we know
C D
And it’s a long tongue Sally pissing off Peggy Sue
C D
Oh it’s about me and you cause it’s time that we grew,
G D
And you said yeah yeah yeah come along with me,
G D
And then you think all the things that you want to see,
C D
I said a woah pretty baby come and take my hand
C D
I’m gonna shake you all night, baby yes I can, wooah!
[Verse 3]
G D
Such as life in the rear view mirror,
G D
The open road up ahead is the future.
C D
Time came round and wrecked our place,
C D
But when I look back now I got a smile on my face.
[Chorus 3]
G D
Come on baby take a chance with me,
G D
Stick around on the town if you wanna see.
C D
We don’t belong anywhere is what she said to me,
C D
So come on, take a dance and spin around with me.
G D
She said shout now baby, set me free C’est la vie,
G D
I said I’ll stand by me, stick around with me.
C D
And when the street lights fall, you can buy my beer,
C D
Cause when the morning light comes, I’ll be gone C’est la vie.
[Outro]
G
Yeah yeah,
G
We don’t belong anywhere,
G
We don’t belong anywhere,
C D
We don’t belong anywhere.
G
Set me free!
G
We don’t belong anywhere,
G
We don’t belong anywhere,
C
We don’t belong anywhere,
C
We don’t belong anywhere.
