D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!


Bb              Cadd4            A7b13
They broke the code, here's what they found:
D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!
Bb              C7add4
It seems this message
A7b13       Bb                   Cadd4
Had been traveling through the cosmos 
      F                 Gm7
For a hundred thousand years
     Bb        
The alarms went off
         Cadd4
And the teletype came to life
A7#9              Bb#9
    They read         It said:
D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!


Bb      Cadd4   A7b13 
Nobody moved or made a sound
D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!
Bb                      Cadd4 A7b13 
They looked around they understood
                              Bb
That everything that they had known 
                     Cadd4 
Would need to be forgotten
                              F                        Gm7
And that they would have to start from the beginning again
        Bb                       Cadd4
And the only thing that mattered now was that everybody
A7#9             Bb#9
    Get down!        Get down!


D7#9      E7       
We interrupt this broadcast
G
To bring you a special news bulletin
D7#9        E7            
Stop whatever it is that
Gm
You're doing, this is an emergency
F        G
Go down, stay down
D7#9              D7#9


Bb       Cadd4      A7b13 
The only thing that matters now
D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!
Bb                      Cadd4  A7b13 
Just as we were hearing the news
                Bb
The announcer's voice was cut off
    Cadd4                   F                   Gm7
The signal went dead and it cut to a different feed
     Bb              Cadd4
A metallic and alien voice began speaking
A7#9             Bb#9

D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!


Bb                       Cadd4          A7b13 
I'm telling you for your own good right now you should
D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!
Bb                       Cadd4          A7b13 
I'm telling you for your own good right now you should
D7#9              D7#9


Bb       Cadd4      A7b13 
The only thing that matters now
D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!
D7#9              D7#9
    Get down!        Get down!
