Riff 1
(C C-G4/B/ G4/B-Am/ Am-G/ G-F/ F-Em/ Em-F G)
It's the thought of being young
When your heart's just like a drum
Beating louder with no way to guard it
Riff 1
When it all seems like it's wrong
Just sing along to Elton John
And to that feeling, we're just getting started
Am Am7+
When the nights get colder
F G
And the rhythms got you falling behind
Am Am7+
Just dream about that moment
F G
When you look yourself right in the eye, eye, eye
Then you say
C G4/B
I wanna dance
Am G
The music's got me going
F Em F G
Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah
C G4/B
Let's break our plans
Am G
And live just like we're golden
F Em F G
And roll in like we're dancing fools
Am Am7+
We don't need to worry
F G
'Cause when we fall, we know how to land
Riff 1
Don't need to talk the talk, just walk the walk tonight
'Cause we don't need permission to dance
C G4/B Am G
There's always something that's standing in the way
F Em
But if you don't let it faze ya
F G
You'll know just how to break

Just keep the right vibe, yeah
Am G
'Cause there's no looking back
F Em
There ain't no one to prove
F G
We don't got this on lock, yeah
Am Am7+
The wait is over
F G
The time is now, so let's do it right
Am Am7+
Yeah, we'll keep going
F G
And stay up until we see the sunrise
And we'll say
C G4/B
I wanna dance
Am G
The music's got me going
F Em F G
Ain't nothing that can stop how we move, yeah
C G4/B
