Intro: Gb |  Gb  Ebm  B  Gb

Db                                                              Ebm
Clocks strikes upon the hour, and the sun begins to fade,
Db                                                            Ebm
still enough time to figure out how to chase my blues away.
B                          Db                            Gb                      B
I've done alright up 'til now, it's the light of day that shows me how,
B                      Gb    Db/Eb                   B     Db
and when the night falls, loneliness calls.

 

Gb
Oh! I wanna dance with somebody, I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
Ebm.                                                        B                  Abm            Db
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,     with somebody who loves me.

Oh! I wanna dance with somebody, I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,  with somebody who loves me.

 

I've been in love and lost my senses, spinning through the town,
soon or later the fever ends, and I wind up feeling down.
I need a man who'll take a chance, on a love that burns hot enough to last.
So when the night falls, my lonely heart calls.

 

Oh! I wanna dance with somebody, I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody, with somebody who loves me.
Oh! I wanna dance with somebody, I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,  with somebody who loves me.

 

           Ebm                                       Db
Somebody who, somebody who,      somebody to love me,
        Ebm                                        Db
somebody who, somebody who,      to hold me in his arms, oh!
B                               Db                             Gb                                  B
I need a man who'll take a chance, on a love that burns hot enough to last.
B                     Gb   Db/Eb                           B     Db
So when the night falls, my lonely heart calls.

 

Ab
Oh! I wanna dance with somebody, I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
Fm                                                           Db              Bbm         Eb
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,    with somebody who loves me.

Oh! I wanna dance with somebody, I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,   with somebody who loves me.

Ab
oh oh oh oh dance.  (interlude — x4)

Don't you wanna dance? Say you wanna dance?
Don't you wanna dance? (Dance)
Don't you wanna dance? Say you wanna dance?
Db            Bbm           Eb     
With somebody who loves me
 Ab
Don't you wanna dance? Say you wanna dance.Don't you wanna dance? (Dance) 
Don't you wanna dance? Say you wanna dance...Don't you wanna dance? (Dance) 
Don't you wanna dance? Say you wanna dance...Uh-huh
Db        Bbm       Eb      Ab
With somebody who loves me
