She’s got the rhythm    (Listen to sample)

 

                   A                                            D

1. This old bar stool’s feelin' higher as I started sinkin' lower,

            A                                                                 E

    the minute that she waltzed right through that door.

           A                                        D

    Not long ago I held her, like a fool I went and left her,

                       A                       E                       A

    now she's with somebody new out on that floor.

 

  - - - - - - - - - - - - -   D                             A

And she's got the rhythm and I got the blues,

                                                                 E

and she's showin me how much I had to lose.

          A                                           D                   B7

With every little move she's telling me, I'm over you,

                        A       - E                         A

she's got the rhythm        and I got the blues.

 

    A - E - A - D - A - E - A

 

                       A                                             D

2. Well, that music’s getting’ louder, as my heart keeps beatin’ faster,

             A                                             E

    and she spells out regret in perfect time.

                   A                                                  D

    Well, I thought I wanted freedom but that ball & chain, I need ‘em

              A                               E                               A

    but when you choose, sometimes you lose the prize.

 

+ CHORUS   +

 

          A                                           D                   B7

With every little move she's telling me, I'm over you,

                        A       - E                         A

she's got the rhythm        and I got the blues.
