Play That Funky Music
Chords v1

         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 e )            

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

 

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

 

Jam in E

 

                                   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
