F#m               G#m
Oh I’m living in a noisy neighbourhood
        F#m                G#m
Writing words with a cruel pen
      F#m                   G#m
And I play my guitar to the radio
       F#m              G#m
With a very, very shaky hand;


[Pre-Chorus]
                 F#m               G#m
(Hear me singing): “shooby doo wop shooby doo wah”
F#m               G#m
  “shooby doo wop shooby doo wah”
E                    F#m
 Oh my life feels so empty now
C#m                    D
   Living here in this bourgeois town
E                        F#m
 The T.V. news and their dumbassed views
C#m                  D
   All I think of is getting out –


[Chorus]
A
 Oh mama there is no shame
A
 To be running to that great escape
C#m
   There is still a little life in this world
D
 Come on and dance to the Universal
A
 Living with the Universal
A
 Talking ’bout the Universal
C#m
   Mister you’re a part of this world
D
 Come let’s dance to the Universal

[Verse 2]
F#m                      G#m
   Now Leonardo he’s got plenty to say
         F#m                 G#m
When he’s   got his friends around him
F#m                          G#m
   If I could get him in the light of day
        F#m               G#m
I’d like    to turn him upside down, yeah


[Interlude]
| F#m     | G#m     | F#m     | G#m     |  x2


[Pre-Chorus]
E                    F#m
 I’m goin’ up to the north coastline
C#m                             D
   The girls are pretty and the weather’s fine
E                              F#m
 I’m tired of fightin’ and I’m tired of trying
C#m                               D
   But I’ll walk the wire for you one more time


[Chorus]
A
 Oh mama there is no shame
A
 To be running to that gret escape
C#m
   There is still a little life in his world
D
 Come on and dance to th Universal
A
 Living with the Universal
A
 Talking ’bout the Universal
C#m
   Mister you’re a part of this world
D
 Come on let’s dance to the Universal
