Fri-day night I crashed your par-ty

 8  -8   -8   7     7    -7 -6  6 -6-7
Sun-day came and trashed me out a-gain  

-4 5  -5 5   5  -4  -4
-8 8  -9 8   8  -8  -8
I was on-ly hav-ing fun  

-4   5   -5   5  5 -4 -4

but I made it home a-live  

-4  5   -5   5   5  -4   -4
-8  8   -9   8   8  -8   -8

 7    7  7 -87-77
that I’m in-sane

 5  -5  6    6  6  6 -6  4  4
 8  -9  9    9  9  9 -10 7  7

 -8     -8   8   8
you're look-ing for  

 5   -5   5    6      5   -5  5   4   3
 8   -9   8    9      8   -9  8   7   6
