Chandelier Lyrics

[ZIDLER, sung / spoken]
Have you know the dreadful power of absinthe?
The green fairy makes every man a visionary
So drink, and rage and forget


Party girls, they don't get hurt
Can't feel anything, when will you learn?
You must push it down
You must push it do-o-own
I'm the one for a good time call
Phone's blowin' up ringin' your doorbell
You feel the love? You feel the lo-o-ove

[ZIDLER, (LA CHOCOLAT, ARABIA, BABY DOLL) & ALL]
One, two, three, one, two, three, drink
One, two, three, one, two, three, drink
One, two, three, one, two, three, drink

Throw 'em back till I lose count

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night
Feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier

[CHRISTIAN]
But I'm holding on for dear life
Won't look down, won't open my eyes

[ZIDLER]
Keep his glass full until morning light
'Cos we're just holding on for tonight

[CHRISTIAN & (LA CHOCOLAT, ARABIA, BABY DOLL)]
Help me I'm holding on for dear life (I'm)
Won't look down won't open my eyes (Gonna swing)
Keep my glass full until morning light (From the chandelier)
'Cos I'm just holding on for tonight (From the chandelier)
On for tonight

[ALL]
On for tonight
On– on for tonight

[GREEN FAIRY, spoken]
Christian

[ALL]
On for tonight
On– on for tonight
On for to– on for to–
On for tonight
On for to– on for to–
On– on– on– on–
[ZIDLER, spoken]
We're creatures of the underworld
We can't afford to love

[ALL]
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier
I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Like it doesn't exist
I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night
Feel my tears as they dry
I'm gonna swing from the chandelier
From the chandelier

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
