[C] When you [Cm] lock in with each other like that, [Bb] then we were [Eb] right close, and you [Ab] know, you
had eye contact with each other, [Bb] and you heard [Eb] each other.
[Cm] And that's the way you just lock
into it, you [Gm] know.
[Eb] And once you lock [Ab] into it, you had it going.
When the [Bb] horns started
to [Eb] hit me, [Cm] then you thought big band, and you [Bb] just, to me that [Eb] was, hey, hit with [Ab] the
band, and that made the whole thing [Bb] sound like it was [Eb] exploding, you [Cm] know.

_ _ _ _ _ _ [Cm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
[Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ the [Cm] funkiest stuff, and we all wanted to play funk and [Bb] jazz funk.
And [Eb] that music
was the [Ab] basis, really the basis for [Bb] all jazz [Eb] rock almost, you know.
[Cm] And the drum parts
were what we [Bb] flipped out [Eb] over, you know, as [Ab] much as anything.
The way the drums, bass,
[Bb] guitar, keyboards, the [Eb] vocals, all worked together, [Cm] interlocking.
So [Bb] I think that [Ab] they
were the music, you know, the rhythm is the music, [Bb] and the drums, [Eb] you know.
