[C13sus4] Out on the [C7]fringe
Where the [C13sus4]shallows meet the s[C7]cratchlands
[C13sus4] Out where[C7] hope and the [C13sus4]highway en[C7]ds
You can [C13sus4]park or cr[C7]uise
[C13sus4]Both ways you [C7]lose

This is fly town now my friend
[C13sus4] You t[C7]ake a walk on [C13sus4]bleak street [C7]
[C13sus4] Tonight could [C7]be the night you cr[C13sus4]ash [C7]
Then you [C13sus4]turn and [C7]stop
[C13sus4]Start to finger p[C7]op
[F13sus4] You think you [F7]hear a wailin' [F13sus4]combo[F7]
[Bbmaj7] You climb a [Bb6]flight of twisted [Bbmaj7]stairs [Bb6]
[Abm6] Some cat says buddy
If you've [G13sus4]got [G7]eyes
To r[G13sus4]hythma t[G7]ize
Bring your [G13sus4]flat [G7]hat and your [G13sus4]ax [G7]
'cause to [G13sus4]night at [G7]ten
We'll be [G13sus4]workin' a g[G7]ain

[C13sus4] The siegel [C7]bros. were s[C13sus4]lammin' out a [C7]baion

Lead off the big front line
[C13sus4] The crowd was [C7]bouncin' in [C13sus4]sync with the [C7]pulse
[C13sus4] You get a [C7]case of party [C13sus4]feet [C7]
(then the [C13sus4]room turns bri[C7]ght
And [C13sus4]fills up with [C7]light)
[F13sus4] Then from s[F7]omewhere deep in [F13sus4]side you [F7]
[Bbmaj7] Some frozen [Bb6]stuff begins to [Bbmaj7]crack [Bb6]
[Abm6] Better hurry
Take the [G13sus4]t- [G7]line to [G13sus4]bleak and di [G7]vine
Just a [G13sus4]bove the [G7]good time [G13sus4]flats [G7]
It's your [G13sus4]last [G7]chance
To [G13sus4]learn how to d[G7]ance
