you everything I see.
C           D
Oh, I see a man at the back, as a matter of fact, 
 
his eyes are red as the sun.
 
And a girl in the corner, let no one ignore her,
 
cause she thinks she's the passionate one.
D                     E                        G
Oh, yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was frightening,
                  Bb                             D
and the music was soothing, and they all started grooving..

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!!
 
[Chorus]
D       E                     G                       A
And the man at the back said, everyone attack, and it turned 
                D
into a ballroom blitz.
        E                        G
And the girl in the corner said, boy, I wanna warn ya, it'll 
A                    D
turn into a ballroom blitz.

I'm reaching out for something, touching nothing's 
           D  D6 D7  D6  D       D  D6 D7  D6  D
all I ever do.

Oh, I softly call you over, when you appear there's nothing

left of you,                aha.
C        D
Now, the man in the back is ready to crack as he raises 
 
his hands to the sky.
 
And the girl in the corner is everyone's mourner..
 
she could kill you with a wink of her eye.
D                E                        G
Oh, yeah, it was electric, so frightfully hectic..
