Chorus
	    F 	     C
But there’s no sense crying
     Bb       F
over every mistake,
	 F	 C
you just keep on trying
        Bb	   F
til you run out of cake

        Bb 	     C
And the science gets done
	F	    Dm
and you make a neat gun
        Bb 	   Am7sus4
for the people who are

still alive!

The blog entry has this:

D Bm (repeat like crazy)
This was a triumph
I’m making a note here: huge success

Em              A
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction

D Bm (repeat like crazy)
Aperture Science
We do what we must because we can

Em              A
For the good of all of us

BbM7
Except the ones who are dead

F                     C          Bb         F
But there's no sense crying over every mistake

F                     C          Bb         F
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake

Gm                     C             F        Dm
And the science gets done and you make a neat gun

Bb                   A         D  Bm (repeat some more)
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’d prefer to stay inside
Maybe you’ll find someone else to help you
Maybe Black Mesa
That was a joke, ha ha, 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


And believe me I am still alive
I’m doing science and I’m still alive
I feel fantastic and I’m still alive
And while you’re dying I’ll be still alive
And when you’re dead I will be still alive
Still alive
Still alive

Additional chords:

I personally play a "C" chord on the words "Neat" "Things" and "To" (In the choruses) to make the transition more interesting and play the Em as 022003 and the A as the riff 
E-x--x-x-x-x
A-0--0-0-0-0
D-2--2-2-2-2
G-2--2-2-2-2
B-2--2-2-2-2
