Verse 1: Girl:
   Chord diagramE MajorE
Hey! Listen now it's coming so close
          Chord diagramA augmentedA
I'll let the rhythm surround me
      G#m/D#       Chord diagramBB
I'm getting itchy and I'm ready to move
                Chord diagramE MajorE
I'm mighty glad that you found me
     Chord diagramE MajorE                       Chord diagramA augmentedA
There's a drummer going at it way down in the core of my soul
      G#m/D#           Chord diagramB/D#B/D#
There's no escaping the music and I'm psyching up my feet
      Chord diagramA/C#A/C#       Chord diagramB/D#B/D#   Chord diagramE MajorE
And they're telling me we're ready to roll

     Chord diagramA augmentedA               Chord diagramBB               Chord diagramE MajorE
There are times when I can fight it but now's the time I want to give in
C#m/C#               Chord diagramF#m/C#F#m/C#
Sooner or later we'll get around to love

           Chord diagramA augmentedA
Oh Baby let the party begin
Chord diagramBB         Chord diagramE MajorE
Baby let the party begin

    Chord diagramA augmentedA
When I woke up this morning and I looked out my window
    Chord diagramE MajorE
I could see the sky was cloudy and gray
      Chord diagramA augmentedA
There was a chill in the air and a pain in my heart
    Chord diagramE MajorE
And the thunder it was coming my way
      Chord diagramA augmentedA
Oh, it was looking pretty bad and I was so alone
     Chord diagramE MajorE        Chord diagramA augmentedA
And there was any place to go
      Chord diagramE MajorE              Chord diagramBB
But now I'm out of the blue, I know what I got to do
  Chord diagramA augmentedA               Chord diagramE MajorE
And something in me's starting to grow
   Chord diagramA augmentedA             Chord diagramBB
I can feel it in me starting to grow...grow...grow...grow...
Chorus: Girl:
Chord diagramE MajorE
I got dance in my pants
Chord diagramA augmentedA           Chord diagramBB        Chord diagramE MajorE
Every time I feel the power in a radio wave
           Chord diagramBB
I turn it up all the way
Chord diagramE MajorE
I got dance in my pants
Chord diagramA augmentedA          Chord diagramBB            Chord diagramE MajorE
Every time I see the glory of a good-looking face
          Chord diagramBB       Chord diagramA augmentedA             Chord diagramE MajorE
Well I just got to say, "Hey now, don't you worry baby, everything'll be fine
    Chord diagramA augmentedA                Chord diagramE MajorE
We got nothing but the best and we got nothing but time
       Chord diagramA augmentedA                Chord diagramE MajorE
And there'll always be a time when they'll be waiting in line
   Chord diagramBB    Chord diagramBB
To be dancing, dancing..."
