F# D#m F#
This was a triumph
D#m F#
I'm making a note here
D#m F# D#m
"huge success"

It's hard to overstate my satis-

Aperture Science
D#m F# D#m F# D#m
we do what we must because we can
G#m C#7
For the good of all of us
D
except the ones who are dead
[chorus]
A E D A
but there's no sense crying over every mistake
A E D A
you just keep on trying till you run out of cake
Bm E A E/G# F#m
and the science gets done and you make a neat gun
D C#7
for the people who are still alive

F# D#m F#
I'm not even angry
D#m F# D#m F# D#m
I'm being so sincere right now
G#m C#7
Even though you broke my heart and
F# D#m F#
killed me
D#m F# D#m F#
And tore me to pieces
D#m F# D#m F# D#m
And threw every piece into a fire
G#m C#7
As they burned, it hurt because
D
I was so happy for you
[chorus]
A E D A
Now these points of data make a beautiful line
A E D A
And we're out of beta; we're releasing on time
D E A E/G# F#m
So I'm glad I got burned; think of all the things we learned

for the people who are still alive

Go ahead and leave me
D#m F# D#m F# D#m
I think I prefer to stay inside
G#m C#7
Maybe you'll find someone else
F# D#m F#
to help you
D#m F# D#m F#
Maybe Black Mesa?
D#m F# D#m F# D#m
That was a joke - haha - fat chance!
G#m C#7
Anyway, this cake is great

it's so delicious and moist
[chorus]
A E D A
Look at me, still talking when there's science to do
A E D A
I look out there; it makes me glad I'm not you
D E A E/G# F#m
I've experiments to run; there is research to be done
D C#7 F#
on the people who are still alive
[outro]
D#m F# D#m F#
And believe me, I am still alive!
D#m F# D#m F#
I'm doing science and I'm still alive!

I feel fantastic and I'm still alive!
D#m F# D#m F#
And when you're dying I'll be still alive!
D#m F# D#m F#
And when you're dead I will be still alive
D#m F#
Still alive
D#m (F#)
Still alive
