C#m     B               A
Nobody wants to hear a sad song
C#m         B                F#m      A
So I just grit my teeth and sing along
C#m                     B                A
There's a choir of the coldest hearts echoin'
the halls
C#m                 B
So a give a little more gas to burn
           F#m           A
And we can fast-cut now to the curtain call

Chorus:
E            C#m         B
Melancholy kaleidoscope, it's high time
A
You shake things up and get the picture
         B
in your head right
E            C#m         B
Melancholy kaleidoscope, it's all right
A
Can't be one hundred if you're only giving
        B
ninety-five

I wanna hear another fast song
Somethin' to tune out all these bad thoughts
Light a fire in the coldest hearts,
fillin' up the halls
That's another lit match to burn
And we can fast-cut now to the curtain call
(We now return to our regularly scheduled program)

Chorus

G#m
So would you please stand by
A
Are we out of time?
C#m
Maybe I'll feel better
B
Give me forty-five
C#m
Staring at the ceiling
B
Choking back my feelings
A
Can't be one hundred if you're only
giving ninety-five

Chorus:
Melancholy kaleidoscope, it's high time
You shake things up and get
the picture in your head right
Melancholy kaleidoscope, it's all right
Can't be one hundred (No)
Can't be one hundred if
you're only giving ninety-five

If you're only giving ninety-five
Only giving ninety-five
