This was a triumph
F#m A F#m A F#m
I'm making a note here: huge success
Bm E A F#m A
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction

Aperture Science
F#m A F#m A F#m
We do what we must because we can

For the good of all of us
Fm7
Except the ones who are dead
C G F C
But there's no sense crying over every mistake

You just keep on trying till you run out of cake

And the science gets done and you make a neat gun

For the people who are still alive
F#m A F#m A
I'm not even angry
F#m A F#m A F#m
I'm being so sincere right now
Bm E A F#m A
Even though you broke my heart and killed me
F#m A F#m A
And tore me to pieces
F#m A F#m A F#m
And threw every piece into a fire
Bm E
As they burned it hurt because
Fm7
I was so happy for you
C G F C
Now these points of data make a beautiful line
C G F C
And we're out of beta, we're releasing on time
Dm G C C/B Am
So I'm glad I got burned, think of all the things we learned
F E A F#m A
For the people who are still alive
F#m A F#m A F#m
I think I'd prefer to stay inside
Bm E A F#m A
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you
F#m A F#m A
Maybe Black Mesa

That was a joke, ha ha, fat chance
Bm E
Anyway this cake is great

It's so delicious and moist

Look at me still talking when there's science to do
C G F C
When I look out there it makes me glad I'm not you

On the people who are still alive
F#m A F#m A
And believe me I am still alive
F#m A F#m A
I'm doing science and I'm still alive
F#m A F#m A
I feel fantastic and I'm still alive
F#m A F#m A
And while you're dying I'll be still alive
F#m A F#m A
And when you're dead I will be still alive
A F#m
Still alive
A F#m
Still alive
