[G]Friday, Saturday
[D][Em]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]Down in the basement[F#m]
[G]Shower up in the[D] sink[Bm]
Throw on [F#m]some lipstick
[G]And look pretty in [D]pink[Em]

[Verse 3]
[F#m]Short skirts in the co[G]ld to the cl[A]ub
Oh, [Bm]the night is waiti[G]ng
[D]Get[F#m]ting closer you feel [G]it shaking
[A]On the dance floor

[Verse 4]
[D]This is the beat, the beat we fight to
[F#m]This is the beat we l[A]ive and die t[Bm]o

We work all [G]week to sweat it off

[Verse 5]
[D]This is the beat to beat the pressure
[F#m]Throwing away the [A]world
with [Bm]pleasure
We're working [A]hard to burn it off
[Abm]So DJ, won't [G]you turn it up?

[Verse 6]

Beat, beat, beat, beat
[Bm]Julie's doing shots at

[Bm]From his stupid [F#m]job
tele[Bm]marketing
But he [G]never can shake [D]the weight[Em]

[Verse 8]
[Bm]A little tap on the shoulder
[F#m]
[G]The prettiest girl in [D]pink
[Bm]"Oh no, I can't dance,"
[F#m]he told [F#sus4]her
[F#m]As she [G]dragged him from his dri[D]nk[Bm]

[Verse 9]
[F#m]Freeze frame in the he[G]at, she moved[A]
Oh, and [Bm]it's close to shaking
[G]So [F#m]close but the crowd[G] is breaking
[A]On the dance floor
