Guitar Intro

B 

Chorus 1:
Everybody get,
E                         A
In the groove and let the good times roll 
E                            B7
 We got to stay here 'till we soothe our soul
            A               E
If it takes all night long 

Verse 1:
E                                A
  It might be one o'clock and it might be three 
E                                B7
  I don't care 'cause time means nothin' to me 
E                             A
 I aint been swingin' since I don't know when 
             F#           B7                   E 
 And I might not, I might not feel this good a-gain

In the groove and let the good times roll

 We got to stay here till we soothe our souls 
               A              E
If it takes me all night long

If it takes me all night long
