Play That Funky Music

                 E
Hey once I was a boogie singer playin' in a rock and roll band
I never had no problems burning down them one night stands
And everything around me got to stop to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly yes I did to disco down and check out the show

            E                            d E              d E              d E                     d E
Yeah they was dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
 G
Play that funky music white boy.    Play that funky music right
                                          Bbm
Play that funky music white boy
Em          D          Bm         A7   D              E9      (riff: e d b d b    g a g a b a g e d)
Lay down a boogie and play that funky music till you die

I tried to understand this.  I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish to not see I was the one behind
So still I kept on fighting well losing every step of the way
I said I must go back there I got to go back and check to see if things still the same

Chorus. + optional jam in E

Now first it wasn't easy changin' rock and roll and minds
And things were getting shaky I thought I'd have to leave it behind
But now its so much better it's so much better I'm funking out in every way
But I'll never lose that feelin' no I won't of how I learned my lesson that day

Chorus +  'Til you die, Oh' till you die 

                                         G 
They shouted play that funky music (Play that funky music) 
Play that funky music (You Gotta keep on playin' funky music)
                                          Bbm
Play that funky music white boy
Em          D          Bm         A7   D              E9              
Lay down a boogie and play that funky music till you die
