Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][C][C][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]Calling out around the world
Are you ready for a brand new beat?
[C]Summer's here and the time is right
For dancing in the street
They're dancing in Chi[C]cago
Down in New Orleans
In New York City
All we need is [F]music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be [C]swinging, swaying,
and records playing
Dancing in the street

[Chorus 1]
[E]Oh, it doesn't matter what you wear
Just as [Am]long as you are there
So come on, [Dm]every guy, grab a girl
[G]Everywhere around the world
They'll be [C]dancing
They're dancing in the street

[Verse 2]
It's just an [C]invitation across the nation
A chance for folks to meet
There'll be [C]laughing, singing,
and music swinging
Dancing in the street
Philadelphia, P[C]A
Baltimore and D.C. now
Can't forget the City
All we need is [F]music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be [C]swinging, swaying,
and records playing
Dancing in the street

[Chorus 2]
[E]Oh, it doesn't matter what you wear
Just as [Am]long as you are there
So come on, [Dm]every guy, grab a girl
[G]Everywhere around the world
They're [C]dancing
They're dancing in the street

[Outro 1]
Way down in L.[C]A.
Every day, they're dancing in the street
Let's form a big, strong [C]line
Get in time, we're dancing in the street
Across the ocean [C]blue
Me and you, we're dancing in the street, yeah
[Fade out]
