Intro: Cm Gm

          Cm
Tie your laces, girl
It is easy
Put your shoes on
      Gm
And enjoy the world
         Cm
You are starry eyed
And you're telling me
                    Gm
The dj's sounding out of sight

          
         Ab     Bb             Cm
But I'm trying hard to keep it real
         Ab    Bb            G
I don't know exactly how to feel

(Chorus:)

         Cm
Tell me, boy
       Ab       Eb      
Am I wasting time?
         Bb
(let's pretend we're here to dance)
Cm     Ab       Eb
Am I losing my mind?
         Bb
(let's pretend we're here to dance)
             Cm                         Ab
Feels like a kick kick kick when it's hitting home
             Eb                     Bb
Feels like a ring ring ring on the telephone
             Cm                      Ab
Feels like a beat beat beat on the meanest drum
             Eb                        Bb
Feels like a kick kick kick when it's hitting home
(let's pretend we're here to dance)

( Cm Gm )

(same base as the verse:)
It's an easy ride
Take my hand and come and join me on the other side
Don't know what to do
Cause the reason I am here is to get close to you

And I'm trying hard to keep it real
I don't know exactly how to feel

(Chorus)

    Fm           Ab
At night I am a tiger
           Bb
They will feed when it gets dark
You know
    Fm           Ab
At night I am a sniper
        Bb
I will aim at every spark
You see
    Fm            Ab
At night I am a razorblade
     Bb
I'll cut your heart in two
Well I don't
Fm              Ab
Care about the tigers
       Bb
All I care about is you

(Chorus)
