Electric Lady

Written by Roman GianArthur/Dr. Nathaniel Irvin III/Charles Joseph II/Janelle Monáe Robinson

	  		Title track from Janelle Monáe's awesome second album. Basically it's just Bm A Em F#7  
repeated all through the song, but I've included the full lyrics below as well with  
timings for when to swap the chords. Let me know any feedback or thoughts! 

*********************************************************** 

Bm    A 
   El-lec-lec-lec-lec-lec-lec-lec-lec-lec-tric 
Em  F#7 
    Lay-lay-lay-lay-lay-lay-lay-lay-dy 

   Bm                        A 
Ooh, you shock it, shake it, baby 
Em                         F#7 
   Electric lady, you're a star 
Bm                          A 
  You got a classic kind of crazy 
Em                           F#7 
   But you know just who you are 
Bm                             A                Em 
   You got the look the Gods agree they wanna see 
                         F#7 
   All the birds and the bees 
                                  Bm 
Dancing with the freaks in the trees 
                               A 
   And watch the water turn to wine 
                          Em 
Out in space and out your mind 
                       F#7 
Ooh, shock me one good time 

         Bm        A       Em 
Electric Lady, get way down 
         F#7 
Cause tonight we gon' do what we want to 
         Bm        A       Em 
Electric Lady, get way down 
         F#7 
Cause tonight we gon' do what we want to 

Bm    A 
La----dy (baby) 
         Em    F#7 
Electric La----dy 

  Bm                       A                 Em 
Yeah, I'll reprogram your mind, come on, get in 
                       F#7 
My spaceship leaves at ten 
Bm                    A                Em 
    I'm where I wanna be, just you and me 
                     F#7                         Bm 
Baby, talking on the side, as the world spins around 
                          A 
Can you feel your spine unwind, 
                            Em 
And watch the water turn to wine? 
                       F#7 
Ooh, shock it one good time 


         Bm        A       Em 
Electric Lady, get way down 
         F#7 
Cause tonight we gon' do what we want to 
         Bm        A       Em 
Electric Lady, get way down 
         F#7 
Cause tonight we gon' do what we want to 

Bm 
Gloss on her lips, glass on the ceiling 
        A 
All the girls showing love while the boys be catching feelings 
Em 
Once you see her face, her eyes, you'll remember 
           F#7 
And she'll have you falling harder than a Sunday in September 
Bm 
Whether in Savannah, K-Kansas or in Atlanta 
A 
She'll walk in any room, have you raising up your antennas 
Em 
She can fly you straight to the moon or to the ghettos 
F#7 
Wearing tennis shoes or in flats or in stilettos 
  Bm 
Illuminating all that she touches, eye on the sparrow 
  A 
A modern day Joan of her Arc or Mia Farrow 
Em 
Classy, sassy, put you in a razzle-dazzy 
       F#7 
Her magnetic energy will have you coming home like Lassie 
         Bm 
Singing, "Ooh, shock it, break it, baby" 
A 
Electro-, sophisti-, funky, lady 
Em 
We the kind of girls who ain't afraid to get down 
         F#7 
Electric ladies go on and scream out loud! 

         Bm        A       Em 
Electric Lady, get way down 
         F#7 
Cause tonight we gon' do what we want to 
         Bm        A       Em 
Electric Lady, get way down 
         F#7 
Cause tonight we gon' do what we want to 


 Bm 
Ooh, shock it, break it, baby 
 A 
Electric Lady, Electric Lady 
        Em 
Singin' boom, shock it, break it, baby 
 F#7 
Electric Lady, Electric Lady
