[C] On the floor of Tokyo
Or [F] down in London town to go, go
With the [G] record selection and the mirror's reflection
I'm [F] dancin' with myself
When there's [C] no one else in sight
In the [F] crowded lonely night
Well, I [G] wait so long for my love vibration
And I'm [F] dancin' with myself
Chorus
Oh, oh, [C] dancin' with myself
Oh, oh, [F] dancin' with myself
Well there's [G] nothing to lose and there's nothing to prove
I'll be [F] dancin' with myself

If I [C] looked all over the world
And there's [F] every type of girl
But your [G] empty eyes seem to pass me by
Leave me [F] dancin' with myself
So let's [C] sink another drink
'Cause it'll [F] give me time to think
If I [G] had the chance I'd ask the world to dance
And I'll be [F] dancin' with myself
Chorus
Oh, oh, [C] dancin' with myself
Oh, oh, [F] dancin' with myself
Well there's [G] nothing to lose and there's nothing to prove
I'll be [F] dancin' with myself
Oh, oh, oh, [C] oh. Oh, oh, oh, [F] oh.
Oh, oh, oh, [G] oh. Oh, oh, oh, [G] oh!
If I [C] looked all over the world
And there's [F] every type of girl
But your [G] empty eyes seem to pass me by
Leave me [F] dancin' with myself
So let's [C] sink another drink
'Cause it'll [F] give me time to think
If I [G↓] had the chance I'd ask the world to dance
And I'll be [F] dancin' with myself
Chorus
Oh, oh, [C] dancin' with myself
Oh, oh, [F] dancin' with myself
If I [G] had the chance I'd ask the world to dance
If I [G] had the chance I'd ask the world to dance
If I [G] had the chance I'd ask the world to dance...
Chorus
Oh, oh, oh, [C] oh. Oh, oh, oh, [F] oh.
Oh, oh, oh, [C] oh. Oh, oh, oh, [F]oh!
Oh, oh, oh, [C] dancin' with myself
Oh, oh, oh, [F] dancin' with myself
Oh, oh, oh, [C] dancin' with myself
Oh, oh, oh, [F] dancin' with myself
Oh, oh, oh, [C↓] oh
