Verse 1:
E A
When we started it was a lot of fun
E A
And the times we had I’ll never forget
E A
But now I’m older and wiser and a bit of a miser
E A
And it’s crazy but I don’t want to quit
Chorus:
E Dsus4 D A
Now ain’t it a shame, the party’s over
E Dsus4 D A
Yeah, we couldn’t keep foolin’ around
E Dsus4 D A
Ain’t it a shame, the party’s over
E Dsus4 D A
Yeah, we got to keep our feet on the ground
Verse 2:
Broken-hearted, it ain’t a lot of fun
Though I have to I can never forget
And so I’m older and brighter and a bad criticizer
And I’m crazy but I don’t give a shit
[repeat chorus]
Guitar solo:
E D A

Verse 3:
E/B A/C#
My old lady don’t see a lot of love
E A/F#
But my guitar, I give it all it can get
E/G# A
So it’s performin’ and writin’ and party all night
E/B A
And call me crazy, but I ain’t gonna quit
[repeat chorus]
Coda (repeat chorus chords to fade):
The party’s over
(There are things to realize)
The party’s over
Yeah, I’m crazy but I don’t give a shit
The party’s over
