Am                           F   Dm
Bleeding sunset on a desert view
Am                             F      Dm
A sea of cocktails but every drink is empty
Am                         F        Dm
Cold shoulders and bad perfume (Ooh, ooh)
Am                            F
Ring the bell, it's a cattle call
          Dm
You self-park too?
Am                       F             Dm
How did we end up on the edge of the infinity pool?
G
I won't jump in without you

Chorus:
Dm                G
Let's leave this party right now
Am         F
We never liked these people
Dm           G
Cowboys and hopeless crowns
Am
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down
Dm                G
They treat these lonely dance floors
Am             F
Like personal cathedrals
Dm             G
Even diamonds here don't shine
Am
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down

I'm at my end here but I'm hanging on (Ooh, ooh)
All I can do is nod my head or play dead
Who's the fool celebrating who?
Could this be any less cool?
You laugh and say I love you

Chorus:
Let's leave this party right now
We never liked these people
Cowboys and hopeless crowns
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down
They treat these lonely dance floors
Like personal cathedrals
Even diamonds here don't shine
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down

Am
Oh, oh, oh
Am
Oh, oh, oh
Am
Oh, oh, oh
Am
Oh, oh, oh
Am
Oh, oh, oh
Am
Oh, oh, oh
                     Dm G Am
We should've left by now
        F                Dm  G
It's clear we don't know how
               Am
We don't know how

Chorus:
Let's leave this party right now
We never liked these people
Cowboys and hopeless crowns
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down
They treat these lonely dance floors
Like personal cathedrals
Even diamonds here don't shine
Spinning us all around
Looking us up and down
