[Verse 1 - SING OCTAVE DOWN - ALMOST TALK]
Well, you can  [Em] tell by the way I use my walk
I'm a  [D] woman's man, no  [Em] time to talk
[Em] Music loud and women warm
I've been  [D] kicked around since  [Em] I was born
 
[Pre-Chorus]
But now it's  [A] all right, that's okay
[A] You may look the other way

The  [A] New York Times' effect on man
 
[Chorus]
[Em] Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're  [Em] stayin' alive, stayin' alive

Well, now  [Em] I get low and I get high
And if I  [D] can't get either, I  [Em] really try
Got the  [Em] wings of heaven on my shoes
I'm a  [D] dancin' man, and I  [Em] just can't lose
 
[Pre-Chorus]
You know, it's  [A] all right, it's okay
I'll  [A] live to see another day
[A] We can try to understand
The  [A] New York Times' effect on man
 
[Chorus]
[Em] Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother
You're  [Em] stayin' alive, stayin' alive
