A#m                    C#
Sharing secrets with another world
G#                           D#m
Rubbing shoulders with some unknown lovers
A#m                      C#
Making waves through the universe
G#                  D#m
Starting wars with anonymous brothers

Make a wish and I'll count to three
Press the button and we'll both be happy
Sending signals is a dirty trick
I get my love in a digital package
Trip switch

Chorus:
D#m                 A#m
What we do when the power's out
G#                      F#
What do we do when the lights go down
D#m                  A#m
What we do when the power's out
G#                     F#
What do we do when the lights go down
D#m                     A#m
Down, Down, Down, Down, Down
G#/C      F#
When the lights go down
D#m            A#m       G# F#

Give me data 'cause I need a hit
How I love stratospheric numbers
Information, I've been craving it
Give me yours, then give me all the others
Trip switch

Chorus

A#m
They put out the lights
They put out the lights
They put out the lights

Chorus:
What we do when the power's out
What do we do when the lights go down?
What we do when the power's out?
What do we do when the lights go
Down, down, down, down, down, down?
What we do when the power's out?
What do we do when the lights go?
What we do when the power's out?
What do we do when the lights go
Down, down, down, down, down, down?
Down, down, down, down, down, down
When the lights go down
