There's not many survivors in the back room from when I was first here, but there is one survivor, Nigel Gibbs.
And [C] it's Nigel's 17th wedding anniversary, [F#m] and I want to wish him and Heidi all the best today and dedicate this song to them.
And also, this song is from a new musical called Billy Elliot, and this song is coming out as a single in a couple of weeks' time.
And it tells the story of when Billy goes down to London and he tries to audition for the Royal Ballet School and he kind of messes it up.
And so, just as he's leaving, they say, Billy, what does it feel like when you dance?
And he sings this song.
And also, here tonight are the Maguire family, whose son George is actually dancing in Billy Elliot tonight.
So, you guys, God bless you.
And it's called Electricity, okay?
[C#m] [D] [A]
[Dm] [E] [A] Can't really explain it I haven't got the words
[F#m] It's a feeling that you can't [E] control
[B] I [Bm] suppose it's like forgetting [F#m] Losing who you are
And at [Dm] the same time Something makes you [A] [E] whole
It's [Am] like there's [Em] some music [F] Playing in your [C] [Am] ear
And I'm listening [Em] And I'm listening
[F] Then I'll [E] disappear And then [C] I'll feel a change
Like a fire deep inside [Dm] Something burns [C] inside [D] [G] [C] me
Flying like a bird [A#] Like [F] electricity [Fm] Electricity
Inside [C] of me I'm free [G] [C] I'm free
It's [A] a feeling like being angry It's a feeling like being scared
[F#m] Confused and all mixed up And [B] mad as hell
It's like [Bm] when you've been crying [F#m] And you're empty and you're full
[Dm] I don't know what it is It's [E] hard to tell
[Am] It's like that [Em] there's some music [F] Playing in your [C] ear
[Am] Music is [G]
impossible [F] Impossible to [E] handle
[C] Like [Am] a bird deep inside [Dm] Something burns [C] inside me
I don't know [D] what it is It's impossible [G] to hide
[C] Suddenly I'm flying Flying like a [A#] bird Like [F] electricity
[Fm] Electricity
Lost [C] inside of me
And I'm [G] free
I'm [Am] free [Fm] Electricity
[C]
[G] Free
[F#m] I'm [A] free
