We're [C] a second on [G] the street, just [A] a minute, feeling [Db] right, and all the [D] men are a little [E] weak.
Suddenly a voice said, go [F] for it, let's get a picture of that white as [Bb] sweet.
And the girl went [E] down, and the man went down, and [Am] the girl [D] went down, [Bb] and the girl _ [Dm] _
[Gm] went _ [Dm] _ down.
Oh, the rhythm of life, [Bbm] _ oh [Eb] the rhythm of life.
Put your fingers in your [C] fingers and your fingers in your fingers.
Rhythm of the [Bb] inside, rhythm of the [Am] street.
And the rhythm of life is [F] a powerful beat.
Oh, the rhythm [F] of life, oh [Bbm] the rhythm of life. _
[Eb] _ _ _ [Cm] _ _ _
[Db] Rhythm of the inside, [Bb] rhythm of the [C] street.

Oh, the way the captain [C] and his men [F] and me, and the other men had been rich.
[Gm] You and I, we're a [E] competition, we're a competition, [Am] we're a competition.
[D] You can't beat us, like [C] a firefly, we're gonna make you dizzy,
but [Dm] we keep the rhythm going, going, going, going.
