[Verse 1] [B] Music is a world with- [G#m] in itself, With a [G] language we all under- [F#] stand. [B] With an equal oppor- [G#m] tunity, For all to [G] sing, dance, and clap their [F#] ha- [F7] nds.
[Bridge 1] But just be- [E9] cause a [D#9] record [D9] has a [C#9] groove, Don't [D9] make it [D#9] in the [E9] groove. But you can [E9] tell right a- [D#9] way at [D9] letter [C#9] A, When the [D9] peo- [D#9] ple [E9] start [F9] to [F#9] move. [F#7]
