Intro:
Am C F

Verse 1:
C                      Em
Carry me up them stairs with my white socks on

And my pretty song
             C
You like my blue nail polish
                  Em
"What is all this?" you said of the mess upstairs

"Don't be scared."


Pre-chorus 1:
G               C      F
Daddy dearest, you know how I like to take trips
                     G
Pops first stops at the K-Mart, buy me my peach lip gloss
        D
Cigarettes and lollipops for our trip across the USA


Chorus:
Am             C
We're gonna party like it's 1949

We're in the Pontiac from July to July
Am        C       F
Gonna see it all before he says goodbye

Gonna party like it's 1949

Am C F


Verse 2:
C                     Em
Carry me up the stairs with my white socks on

And my blonde hair long
          C
You like my pin-up bodice and the solace
          Em
That comes with the midnight air

And my icy stare


Pre-chorus 2:
G              C
It's the clearest when it's me and him alone
F                      G
He stops, he talks about all the ways he used to live it up
          D
Dinerettes and soda pops for our trip across the USA


Chorus:
Am             C
We're gonna party like it's 1949
F
We're in the Pontiac from July to July
Am        C       F
Gonna see it all before he says goodbye

Gonna party like it's 1949


Outro:
Am          G
Daddy likes Blackpool Pleasure Beach and road stops
C
Me, I like the Swiss Alps, souvenir gift shops
Am          G
Late night midnight radio show talks
C         Am
Him and me, a big jailbreak
C            Em
Ponytail and lollipops, dinerettes and soda pops
D            C
New blue bathing suit, rouge tops and Cadillacs
Am            G
Blue lake, Carter Docks, hopscotch, shit talk
Am          C
Alabama hard knocks, motel brass lock.
