The ballroom blitz

Written by Mike Chapman/Nicholas Chinn

	  		INTRO:  
18 bars drums, then play RIFF four times 
 
A 
It's been getting so hard 
                                 E 
living with the things you do to me             {RIFF TWICE} 
   A 
My dreams are getting so strange 
                                  E 
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 
 
E                    F#                       A 
Oh yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was frightening 
                  C                             E 
and the music was soothing and they all started grooving 
E 
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

F# A And the man at the back said "Everyone attack" B E and it turned into a ballroom blitz F# A And the girl in the corner said "Boy I wanna warn you" B E and it turned into a ballroom blitz D D# E Ballroom blitz

And here's the RIFF (or at least an easy way to get close): E------------------------ B------------------------ G--9--(9)-(9)-(9)-9------ D--9--11--12--11--9------ A--7--7---7---7---7------ E--7--7---7---7---7------ (9) means that you can leave the note out without anyone noticing if you can't stretch your fingers like this :)
