Intro: C*, Dsus4, Em* } 2X

E minorEm         Em6Em6
Just a small town girl on a Saturday night
    E minor 7Em7         Em(maj7)
Looking for the fight of her life
    C majorC           Cadd9Cadd9
in the real time world no one sees her at all
    Cadd9(13)  B7sus4B7sus4 B7B7
they all say she's crazy


E minorEm         Em6Em6
Locking rhythm to the beat of her heart
    E minor 7Em7         Em(maj7)
Changing movement into light
       C majorC           Cadd9Cadd9
She had danced into the danger zone
       Cadd9(13)           B7sus4B7sus4 B7B7
When the dancer becomes the dance

A7A7     B7B7              C majorC
It can cut you like a knife if the fight becomes the fire
          B7(b13)      B7B7
On the wire between will and what will be


C majorC     D MajorD        E minorEm
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
            C majorC           D MajorD          E minorEm
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

C majorC      D MajorD          E minorEm
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
       C majorC              D MajorD          A augmentedA
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

E minorEm         Em6Em6
On the ice blue line of insanity
    E minor 7Em7         Em(maj7)
is a place most never see
    C majorC           Cadd9Cadd9
It's a hard won place of mystery
    Cadd9(13)  B7sus4B7sus4 B7B7
touch it but can't hold it

E minorEm         Em6Em6
You work all your life, for that moment in time
    E minor 7Em7         Em(maj7)
It could come or pass you by
    C majorC           Cadd9Cadd9
it's a push shove world but there's always a chance
   Cadd9(13)     B7sus4B7sus4 B7B7
if the hunger stays the night

A7A7       B7B7               C majorC
There's a cold kinetic heat struggling stretching for the peak
              B7(b13)      B7B7
Never stopping with her head against the wind

C majorC     D MajorD        E minorEm
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
            C majorC           D MajorD          E minorEm
And she's dancing like she's never danced before

C majorC   D MajorD           E minorEm
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
          C majorC              D MajorD          A augmentedA
And she's dancing like she's never danced before
