INTRO:  
18 bars drums, then play RIFF four times 
 
A5 
It's been getting so hard 
                                 E5 
living with the things you do to me             {RIFF TWICE} 
   A5 
My dreams are getting so strange 
                                  E5 
I'd like to tell you everything I see           {RIFF TWICE} 
 
{NO CHORD} 

I see a man at the back  

as a matter of fact 

his eyes are as red as the sun 

And a girl in the corner  

let no one ignore her 'cause  

she thinks she's the passionate one 
 

E5                    F#5                       A5 
Oh yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was frightening 
                  C5                             E5 
and the music was soothing and they all started grooving 
E5 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
 
Chorus: 
        F#5                    A5 
And the man at the back said "Everyone attack"  
       B5                      E5 
and it turned into a ballroom blitz 
        F#5                       A5 
And the girl in the corner said "Boy I wanna warn you" 
       B5                      E5 
and it turned into a ballroom blitz 
D5   D#5   E5 
Ballroom blitz          {repeat 4 times} 
 
{RIFF TWICE} 
 
I'm reaching out for something 

touching nothing's all I ever do                {RIFF TWICE} 

I softly call you over 

When you appear there's nothing left of you     {RIFF TWICE} 
 
Now the man at the back is ready to crack 

as he raises his hands to the sky 

And the girl in the corner is everyone's moaner 

she could kill you with a wink of her eye 
 
Oh yeah, it was electric, so frightfully hectic 

And the band started leaping 'cause they all stopped breathing 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
 
Chorus 
 
Oh yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was frightening 

and the music was soothing and they all started grooving 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 
 
Chorus 
 
 
E5                            D5 
It's, it's a ballroom blitz             {repeat 3 times} 
E5 
Yeah, it's a ballroom blitz 
 
REPEAT RIFF AND FADE
