------------------------------------.............

*Released 1959*


Chorus 1:

G                   C
 Everybody loves to cha cha cha,
                        G
Little children like to cha cha cha.
             D7
They like to cha cha cha,
             C
They like to cha cha cha.
G (n.C)             C       G
 Everybody loves to cha cha cha.

Verse 1:

G
 Took my baby to the hop last night,
                   D7
And what to my sur-prise.
When we got there;
    C
She hit me with the news;
D7                 G6
 Right between the eyes, yeah.

Chorus 2:

    G                        C
She said she couldn't do the cha cha cha,
                             G
She said she couldn't do the cha cha cha.
             D7
She couldn't cha cha cha, no,
             C
She couldn't cha cha cha.
G (n.C)                  C       G
 My baby couldn't do the cha cha cha.

Verse 2:

G
 I told her not to worry,
                       D7
They'd play some other dance.
                        C
But we sat there for an hour and a half,
       D7          G6
And we never got a chance.
For;

Chorus 3:

G                               C
 Every song they played was the cha cha cha,
                               G
Every song they played was the cha cha cha.
              D7
"Tom Dooley", cha cha cha,
               C
"Tea For Two", cha cha cha.
G (n.C)               C       G
 Every number was the cha cha cha.

Verse 3:

G
 I told her not to worry;
                              D7
There's only one thing we can do.
Baby, if you let me,
C
 Take you by the hand,
          D7                  G6
I'm gonna teach this dance to you.
Then, I taught her;

Bridge 1:


G
 One two, cha cha cha,
C
 One two, cha cha cha,
    G               C
And up now, take it back now.
              D7
That's right, turn now,
              C
Alright let's cross now.
G (n.C)                  C       G
 I taught my baby how to cha cha cha.

Verse 4:

G
 We kept on dancing and was,
                     D7
I surprised, for you see;
        D7
For you see;
After we practiced it,
      C
For a little while,
        D7                   G6
She was doing it better than me.

Chorus 4:

G                            C
 Now my baby loves to do the cha cha cha,
                    G
She loves to do the cha cha cha.
              D7
She likes her cha cha cha,
             C
She likes to cha cha cha.
G (n.C)             C       G
 Everybody likes to cha cha cha.
(They do it);

Coda:

G
 One two, cha cha cha, alright,
C
 One two, cha cha cha,
    G               C
And up now, alright back now.
                   G
Alright baby let's cross now,
    C                    G
And turn now, whoa-oh-oh-oh.

(Repeat to Fade)
