G 
C 
Am 
C 
Because we're all so very,
E 
21st century
Am 
C 
You're probably listening to me,
Dm 
on some kind of portable stereo
Am 
Dm 
Maybe  you're sitting
C 
at the back of the bus
E 
Or it's running up your sleeve
and you're across from your boss
G#dim 
Am 
Or       you're sitting in your bedroom
on your own
Dm 
G 
with the lights down low
Dm 
I'd like to teach you four simple words
G 
So the next time you
come to a show
C 
You could sing those words back at me
F 
Like they're the only
Fm 
words that you know
Dm 
E 
C 
E 
I want to dance, I want to dance,
Am 
I want lust and love
Dm 
and a smattering of romance
C 
But I'm no good at dancing,
E 
and yet I have to do something
Am 
Tonight I'm gonna play it straight,
Dm 
I'm gonna take my chance
C 
Am 
Dm 
I want to dance
Am 
Hi  -ho, hi -ho, hi -ho,
Dm 
we're heading out to the
punk rock show
C 
Colleagues and friends kinda
stand with a smile,
G 
yeah, but this is my culture,
man, this is my home
Am 
The dark hallowed masses
gather at the gate
Dm 
Yeah, the doors are at seven
and the show starts at eight
C 
A few brushes, arrows
in the space of our own
G 
And when the band comes on,
the only thing I really know
C 
I wanna dance
E 
I wanna dance
Am 
I want lust and love
Dm 
and a smattering of romance
C 
But I'm not good at dancing
E 
And yet I have to do something
Am 
Tonight I'm gonna play it straight
Dm 
Don't want to take my chance
C 
Am 
Dm 
C 
I want to dance
G 
Am 
Yeah, is any body else sick of
the music
Dm 
that's churned out by nightlife's
disease to some shortage?
C 
Yeah, it's all sex,
drugs, and sins,
leather extras from skins
G 
But it's okay, cos it don't really mean it
Am 
I won't bounce,
I'm not too hard to deck
Dm 
Keep driving thousand miles
and play the show in no sleep
C 
Sleeping on the floor in a
stranger's place
G 
Hungry just to do it all again
the next day
C 
I wanna dance
E 
I wanna dance
Am 
I want less than love
Dm 
and a splattering of romance
C 
But I'm no good at dancing
E 
And yet I have to do something
Am 
Tonight I'm gonna play it straight
Dm 
I'm gonna take my chance
C 
G 
I wanna dance
Am 
So put your hands on your hips
And bring your knees in tight
Yeah, we do this shit together, man
No fists, no fights
Dm 
We're not trying to shape the world
G 
Some people think like us
C 
We just want our own space to dance,
man
F 
No favors, no fuss
Dm 
Your blood, sweat, and fire
We have built ourselves a house
But roof is on fire
G 
Now we're gonna put it out
Forget about your bridges,
C 
and remember that you're blast
Smoking's for the kids,
F 
who never fit in with the rest,
alright
Dm 
Somebody told me that music
with guitars
G 
Was going out of fashion, and
I had to laugh
C 
This shit wasn't fashionable,
and I fell in love
F 
If the hipsters move on,
Fm 
why should I give a fuck?
F 
C

I wanna dance
C

C 
E 
Yeah I wanna dance, I wanna dance
Am 
I want you and me both
Dm 
to join hands down at the front
C 
So the next time I see you,
E 
remember these words
Am 
Sing like the hurricanes are down
Dm 
The world turns right,
no one's around
C 
Singing four simple words
You
