[E] [Em] [F]
[Bbm] [Eb]
[B] [Bb] [Ebm] [Dbm]
[Ebm] There's a little rhythm, rhythm, rhythm, that petty-pats through my brain.
So darn persistent, the day isn't distant, one it will drive me [E] insane.
[Bbm] Comes in the morning without any warning, hangs around me all day.
[F] I'll have to sneak up to it, someday I'll speak up to it, I hope it [Gm] listens when I say,
Fascinating rhythm, you got me on the [Bb] go, fascinating rhythm, I'm all a-quiver.
[Eb] What a mess you're making, the neighbors want to know, why I'm all shaking just like a flipper.
[Ab] Each morning [Bb] I get [Eb] up with the sun, start a-hopping, never stopping,
to [F] find that night no [Bb] work has been done.
[Eb] I [Bb] know that once it didn't matter, but now you're doing wrong,
when you start to patter, I'm so unhappy.
[Eb] Won't you take a day off, decide to run along, somewhere far away off and make a snappy.
[Ab] [Eb] Oh how, [G] how long to [Eb] be the man I [F] used to be,
[Bb] fascinating [Bb] rhythm, you gotta stop [Eb] picking on [Bb] me.
