[Verse + Riff - Full drums] 
[E] Hey, once I was a boogie singer 
Playin' in a rock-and-roll band 
I never had no problems 
Burnin' down the one-night stands 
And everything around me 
Got to start to feelin' so low 
And I decided quickly 
Yes, I did 
To disco down and check out the show 
(Horn Riff 0x991212 xx771010 0x991212) 
 
[Pre-Chorus - E7#9 or 076777] 
[E] Yeah they were dancin' and singin' 
And movin' to the groovin' 
And just when it hit me 
(Drum roll - use electronic bass drum pedal)
(straight 8 notes)
----BBBB-B+SBBB-BBBB-------S
Or play B drum on offbeat 
SBSB SBSB SBSB SBS "shouted" for final snare 
Somebody turned around and shouted 
 
[Chorus G7add9] 
[G7add9] "Play that funky music, white boy 
Play that funky music right 
Play that funky music, [A#7add9] white boy
[A7] Lay down that [E7#9] boogie 
And [B7#9] play that funky music 'til you die." 
 
'Til you die? 

[Verse + Riff] 
[E] I tried to understand this 
I thought that they were out of their minds 
How could I be so foolish 
To not see I was the one behind 
So still I kept on fighting 
Well, losing every step by the way 
... we can do 
I said, I must go back there 
I got to go back 
And check to see if things still the same 
 
[Pre-Chorus] 
[E7#9 or 076777] 
Yeah they were dancin' and singin' 
And movin' to the groovin' 
And just when it hit me 
Somebody turned around and shouted
 
[Chorus G7add9] 
[G7add9] "Play that funky music, white boy 
Play that funky music right 
Play that funky music, [A#7add9] white boy
[A7] Lay down that [E7#9] boogie 
And [B7#9] play that funky music 'til you die." 
 
'Til you die? 
Oh, 'til you die 
Gonna play some electrified funky music 

[Solo - All over riff - E7#9] 

[Verse + Riff] 
[E] Hey, wait a minute 
Now first it wasn't easy 
Changing rock-and-rolling minds 
And things were gettin' shaky 
I thought I'd have to leave it behind 
Oh, but now it's so much better (it's so much better) 
I'm funking out in every way 
But I'll never lose that feelin' (you know, I won't) 
Of how I learned my lesson that day 
 
[Pre-Chorus] 
[E7#9 or 076777] 
Yeah they were dancin' and singin' 
And movin' to the groovin' 
And just when it hit me 
Somebody turned around and shouted (drum roll) 
 
[Chorus G7add9] 
[G7add9] "Play that funky music, white boy 
Play that funky music right 
Play that funky music, [A#7add9] white boy
[A7] Lay down that [E7#9] boogie 
And [B7#9] play that funky music 'til you die." 
 
[Riff] 
'Til you die? 
Oh, 'til you die 
They shouted 
 
[Chorus - All G7] 
"Play that funky music 
Play that funky music 
Play that funky music 
You got to keep on playin' funky music 
Play that funky music 
Play that funky music 
Play that funky music 
Gonna take you high and low." 
 
[Now A7] 
"Play that funky music, white boy 
Play that funky music right 
Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right 
 
Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right 
Play that funky music, white boy
Play that funky music right."
