[D]
[G] [D] Stood outside the lucky star staring at the flashing sign
It read [G] come on in and watch young [D] starlets body come alive
Let her [G] dance for [A] you and cast a [D] spell you'll swear you can't believe [G] her
Be careful not to catch that [A] scarlet fever
So [D] I paid my fair and walked down front and found an empty chair
As [G] I settled in young starlet took [D] the runs from her hair
The moves [G] her body [A] made while the music [D] played were the likes [G] I've never seen
And she [A] became the envy [D] of my dreams
One by one a teasing movement brought the crowd out of their [A] seats
[G] And all that was young scarlet danced [D] right up in front of me
From [G] the moment that [A] her eyes found mine [D] I've never been [G] the same
Scarlet locked [A] another heart [D] upon her chain
Now I get [G] scarlet fever
[A] Every [G] time I [D] see [G] her
[D] She's a [Em] nightclub teaser
[D] Not [A] paid to [D] notice me
This time it's [G] scarlet fever
[A] If she knew how [G] much I [D] need her
[G]
She'd place her [Em] hand in my hand
[A] And dance away [D] with me
She looks 25, but I was told she was just 16
[G] She had a way of making a man [D] believe she danced for only him
[G] As she [A] tantalized, I [D] fantasized and felt the [F#] sound of my [G] heartbeat
Every night I dreamed [A] she'd fall in [D] love with me
Then one night while driving in
My eyes began to tear
[A] Caused [G] the sign outside the lucky [D] star said scarlet isn't here
She [G] left that [A] day to find a [D] life of bigger [G] and better things
And she left behind [A] my chain of [D] broken dreams
But I still get [G] scarlet fever
[A] In my mind I [D] still see her
[G] Out [D] there [Em] dancing somewhere
[G] To [A] another full [D] life
Yes, I get [G] scarlet fever
[A] If she knew how much [G] I [D]
need her
[G] She'd place [D] her hand [Em] in my hand
[A] And dance [D] away with me
[G] [D]
