[E] [Fm] [Dm]
[G] [D]
Left amongst the crowd, [G] [F] [D] on the horse's pumping eye,
[E] [D] The man with the horn, takes [F] to the stage, [D] The drumbeat cracks inside.
[G] [Dm] [D]
Harder and bolder, the bodies [E] move, [D]
Shoulder to shoulder, skin [E] feels smooth,
[D]
Hots, sticky, this is [G] so [F] cool, [D] The crash to the anvil, as the night [F] runs [A] through.

Watch the moving bodies, [G] as they [D] react to the sound,
[C] [D]
Feasting all the visions, [G] [Fm] see the [G] figures going round,
[D]
Graceful and flowing, the fashion [C] shows, [D]
Sensual and glowing, the [C] fashion grows,
[D]
Pick your playmate, still [C] so cool, [D] The crash to the [Dm] anvil, as the night runs [E] through.

Take care as it comes, [C] leave [D]
it when it's done, [E] [D] Put the number on your matchbook,
And call when you want [G] fun, [D]
Living the nightlife to [G] the [F] end,
[D]
Giving the right life, like [C] a friend, [D]
One more run, still [E] so cool,

The crash to the anvil, as the night runs [F] through.
