This is a simple and simply awesome song. All chords are power chords if you don't 
know what a 5 chord is. You can easily figure out the patterns by listening to the 
song once or twice. Enjoy =)

Say you don't know me, or recognize my face

Say you don't care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
                                                         F5 E5
Too many runaways eating up the night

We just want to dance here, someone stole the stage
