                         D          Bm       D       Bm
This was a triumph.
                         D                   Bm         D                Bm 
 I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS.

          Em            A                             D        Bm    D     Bm
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction.

                     D            Bm       D      
Aperture Science       

          Bm               D            Bm                 D       Bm   
We do what we must because we can.

Em                            A                                   Bbsus2
For the good of all of us. Except the ones who are dead.

                     F                    C                     Bb         F
But there's no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.

                  Bb              C                       F               Dm 
And the Science gets done. And you make a neat gun.
             Bb               A             D
For the people who are still alive.



I'm not even angry. I'm being so sincere right now.
Even though you broke my heart. And killed me.
And tore me to pieces. And threw every piece into a fire.
As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you!

Now these points of data make a beautiful line.
And we're out of beta. We're releasing on time.
So I'm GLaD. I got burned. Think of all the things we learned
for the people who are still alive.

Go ahead and leave me. I think I prefer to stay inside.
Maybe you'll find someone else to help you.
Maybe Black Mesa THAT WAS A JOKE. HAHA. FAT CHANCE.
Anyway, this cake is great. It's so delicious and moist.

Look at me still talking when there's Science to do.
When I look out there, it makes me GLaD I'm not you.
I've experiments to run. There is research to be done.
On the people who are still alive.

                   D           Bm       D      Bm
And believe me I am still alive.
I'm doing Science and I'm still alive.
I feel FANTASTIC and I'm still alive.
While you're dying I'll be still alive.
And when you're dead I will be still alive.
STILL ALIVE (x2)

ROFL THIS IS GREAT!

This tab is so confusing can someone explain it to me?

@Kabukibear (October 24, 2007 at 10:26 AM)

This is inaccurate starting from the very first chord, what you have is not what is being played.

E||-------------------|--------2-----------2-----|--------2-----------2-----|
B||-------------------|-----3-----3-----3-----3--|-----3-----3-----3-----3--|
G||-------------------|--2-----------4-----------|--2-----------4-----------|
D||-------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|
A||-------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|
E||-------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|

And so on...

Sweeeeeet, I love this song!

@XZeon34 (November 27, 2007 at 2:28 PM)

Haha xD Nice job :D Love this song xD Even though, I hate the computer in the game -.-

@Anonymous (January 12, 2008 at 2:19 AM)

the nice bit of the GLaD, is the singing computer is named GLaDos.

@Ghastly (January 18, 2008 at 4:27 AM)

I believe the chords for the "and the science gets done / and you make a neat gun" part should be

Bb F C / F C Dm

Otherwise it's sounding pretty good. I'm playing it on the accordion as we speak.

The "It's hard to overstate my satisfaction." goes like this:

E||-------------------|--------3-----------3-----|--------3-----------3-----|
B||-------------------|-----5-----5-----5-----5--|-----5-----5-----5-----5--|
G||-------------------|--4-----------4-----------|--2-----------2-----------|
D||-------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|
A||-------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|
E||-------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|

The ending of the verse: "Except the ones who are dead." (Played along "ones who are", while "dead" ist a... well... dead note.)

E||--------1----------|
B||-----3-------------|
G||--3----------------|
D||-------------------|
A||-------------------|
E||-------------------|

(corrections welcome)
