[Em] This is a song you'll [E] have to help me out on because I usually play it with the band and it needs a lot of rhythmic accompaniment.
Anyway, I've got to try it because you can [G] only sing so many down songs, otherwise people nod off.
You know what I mean?
Here we go.
[F]
[Am] Hey [D] kids, chain loose [G] together, the spotlight's in [E] the stomach.
We're known to change [Am] the weather, we'll kill the fighting car tonight, so [Em] stick around.
[Am] You're gonna hear [Bm] electric music, so look [C] for the sound.
[C] [G] Haven't seen her yet, [Am] oh, she's so spaced [C] out.
Fanny and the Jazz.
[G] Oh, she's sweet and wonderful, [Am] I'm fannying she's a reality.
[C] She's got electric boost, [D] I'm all her suit, [Em] you know I really want her back.
[D] [C]
[G] Benny and the Jets
[F]
[A] Hey kids, [D] why don't you plug into the [G] fake list
Maybe they're [Ab] blinded, but Benny makes them [Am] ignorant
We shall [D] survive, let us take [Em] our thoughts along
[Am] Where we find our parents out in the street
We find who's [C] right and who's wrong
[G] And the street of it, [Am] oh, it's so spaced out
