{c:Intro Riff 4x}

[C] We can dance if we want to
We can [Bb] leave your friends be- [F] hind
‘Cause your [F] friends don’t dance and [Bb] if they don’t dance
Well they’re [C] no friends of [G] mine
I say [C] we can go where we want to
A place where [Bb] they will never [F] find
And we can [F] act like we come from [Bb] out of this world
Leave the [C] real one far be- [G] hind
And we can [F] dance and [Bb] sing [Eb]  [Ab] 
And we can [F] dance and [Bb] sing [Eb]  [Ab] 


[C] We can go when we want to
The night is [Bb] young and so am [F] I
And we can [F] dress real neat from our [Bb] hats to our feet
And sur- [C] prise ‘em with the victory [G] cry
Say, [C] we can act if we want to
If we [Bb] don’t nobody [F] will
And you can [F] act real rude and [Bb] totally removed
And I can [C] act like an imbe- [G] cile


{soc}
I say, [F] we can dance, [Bb] we can dance
[Eb] Everything’s out of con- [Ab] trol
[F] We can dance, [Bb] we can dance
We’re [Eb] doing it from pole to [Ab] pole
[F] We can dance, [Bb] we can dance
[Eb] Everybody look at your [Ab] hands
[F] We can dance, [Bb] we can dance
[Eb] Everybody takin’ the [Ab] cha- [Bb] -a-a- [C] ance
[G] It’s safe to [D] dance [A] 
Oh well it’s safe to [C] dance [G] 
Yes it’s safe to [D] dance [A]
