Techno Fan by The Wombats
Techno Fan
Tuning: Standard
D
East London's not a bomb site
G
It is a treasure chest
D
We use our penguin costumes
G
More than our evening dress
D
She said I should come over
G
Though the music's not my type
D
Don't you know I'd chop a limb off
Bm A G
Just to have a good time
D G
Shut up and move with me, move with me, or, or get out of my face
Bm A G
I didn't queue for an hour to leave straight away
D G
Shut up and stay with me, stay with me, or, or let go of my hand
Bm A G
The lasers fill our minds with empty plans
D
I never knew I was a techno fan
D G D
Wuuuuuuuuu Wuuuuuu WuUu X2
D
This is not a weird weekend
G
It's an angry wormhole
D
I'm talking like a city boy
G
And drinking with a northern soul
D
She said I should come over
G
Though it's carnage at times
D
It still seems I'd chop a limb off
Bm A G
Before I put up a fight
D G
Shut up and move with me, move with me, or, or get out of my face
Bm A G
I didn't queue for an hour to leave straight away
D G
Shut up and stay with me, stay with me, or, or let go of my hand
Bm A G
The lasers fill our minds with empty plans
G
I never knew I was a techno
Em
We are the 1980s
G
We are the Detroit lights
Bm A G
And I never wanna, I never wanna see this stop
Em
I'm in debt to you
Gm
But don't feed me plant food
D G
Shut up and move with me, move with me, or, or get out of my face
Bm A G
I didn't spend 20 sheets and not cut a shape
D G
Shut up and stay with me, stay with me, or, or let go of my hand
Bm A G
The lasers fill our minds with empty plans
D
I never knew I was a techno fan
D G D
Wuuuuuuuuu Wuuuuuu WuUu X2
