Start Jamming...
[C] Here's a band at number 23, they're dancing [Bm] in the moonlight.
They've got that little bit extra style.
[E] Watch them, it's Thin Lizzy.
[C] [N] When [Em] I pet you [D] in the doorway
[C] Well, you took me with a [G] glance
I [Em]
should have took [D] that last bus home, [C] but I asked you for [G] a dance
[Em] Now we go steady [D] to the beaches.
[C] I always get chocolate [A] stains on my [Em] pants
And my [D] father he's going [C] crazy
Says I'm living in a trance, but I'm [Em] dancing in the moonlight
[D] It's got [C] me and it's got life
[Em] Dancing in the moonlight
[D] On this [C] long hot summer night
[F#]
[Em] It's three o [D]'clock in the morning [C] and I'm on the [G] streets again
I [Em] guess [D] I made another one then, [C] I should have been in by ten
[E] Now I won't [F#] get out until Sunday, [C] I'll have to say, [G] hey I stayed the place
[D] Oh, but it's a habit one moment, if [C] it means to justify [Bm] the dance
[Em] Dancing in the moonlight
[D] It's got me [C] and it's got life
[G] [Em] Dancing in the moonlight
On [D] this [G] long hot summer night
I'm [B] [E]
[C] [C#] [Em]
[C] [B] walking home
[E]
[C] [Bm] The last bus has gone
[C] [G] [F#] [Em]
[D] [C] [G] [Em]
[D] [C] [G] [Em]
[C] [G] [Em]
[D] [G] [Em] Dancing in the moonlight
[Dm] It's got [C] me and it's got life
It's alright, [Em] it's alright, it's alright, it's [D] alright, it's alright
On this [C] long hot summer [G] night
So goddamn hot
[Em] Dancing in
