[Chorus]
 
  C                      Bb
Come on, baby, while the moon is high
 Am          Bb         C
Kick up your heels and dance
                     Bb
Don't be nervous and don't be shy
     Am       Bb     C               Am
And give yourself a chance, you can dance
 C/D                     D
Kick off your shoes and lose your blues
F                   G
Pick them up, Lord, put them back down
    Bb                                         **
And around, and around, and around, and around
 
[Verse 1]
 
C                 Bb
Come on, baby, it must be fun
      Am        Bb         C
To be dancing in the clear moonlight
                  Bb
Otherwise, would everyone be out
  Am   Bb     C                             Am
On such a cold and windy night? We can dance
C/D                D
Throw yourself away
F              G           Bb    **
Holy month of May, you can dance
 
[Verse 2]
 
C   Am                         G     C
    Listen to the music of the steel guitar, don't it sound good, hey now
Am                               G       C
Nobody here tonight came to look at you, no, no no
       Am                                        G      C
Well I bet you five dollars that somebody starts a fire back in the woods, hey now
Am                                G       C
Everybody here tonight came to boogie and have a good time, too
 
[Chorus]
 
  C                      Bb
Come on, baby, while the moon is high
 Am          Bb         C
Kick up your heels and dance
                     Bb
Don't be nervous and don't be shy
     Am       Bb     C               Am
And give yourself a chance, you can dance
 C/D                     D
Kick off your shoes and lose your blues
F                   G
Pick them up, Lord, put them back down
    Bb                                         **
And around, and around, and around, and around
 
[Outro]
 
C   Am                        C
       And if I could lose my mind
            Bb            Dm  D
If I could throw myself away
