Mama! I don't have time for dancing!   C B C


F                                C
That's just gonna have to wait a while
C         B        C
Ain't got time for messing around
D               G
And it's not my style
Am       Gm       C
This old town can slow you down
       F          Em   D
People taking the easy way
      C    E       Am        
But I know exactly where I'm going
        D                 Am    C
Getting closer and closer every day


        C  B   Bb Am  F   C      D 
And I'm almost there, I'm almost there
C           E              Am  C  D           G  
People down here think I'm crazy, but I don't care
C    B     Bb        Am  F    C      D   
Trials and tribulations, I?ve had my share
            Am      D     C                      F      C
There ain't nothing gonna stop me now ?cause I'm almost there


  C        F     C         D                   G
I remember Daddy told me: ?Fairytales can come true
          Am                  D              G
You gotta make 'em happen, it all depends on you"
     C         Gm            C     F
So I work real hard each and every day
    C                   D
Now things for sure are going my way
C          Am
Just doing what I do
D                  G
Look out boys, I'm coming through


        C    B Bb Am  F   C      D
And I'm almost there, I'm almost there
C            E              Am
People gonna come here from everywhere
        F      C
And I'm almost there
    D    F C
I'm almost there


(INTERLUDE) C  F  Fm (2Xs)  C  F  Ab  C  G

C            Eb         Gm         C
There's been trials and tribulations
    F         C      D
You know I've had my share
         C           E              Am          Dm
But I've climbed the mountain, I've crossed the river
        C    D C
And I'm almost there
    D    F C
I'm almost there!
