[A] [G] [A] [G] [A] [Em]
[A] Let me tell you about a [D] place somewhere up a New York way
Where the people are so [E] gay, twisting the night [A] away
Here they have a lot of [F#m] fun, putting trouble on the [D] run
Man, you find the old and [E] young twisting [A] the night away
They're twisting, twisting, [F#m] everybody's feeling great
[D] They're twisting, twisting, [E] they're twisting [A] the night away
[F#m] Here's a man in evening clothes, how he got here I don't [D] know
But man, you ought to see him [E] go, twisting the night away
[A] He's dancing with the chicken [F#m] slacks, she's moving up and [D] back
Oh man, there ain't nothing [E] like twisting [F#m] the night [A] away
They're twisting, twisting, [F#m] everybody's feeling great
[D] They're twisting, twisting, [E] they're twisting the [F#m] night
Let's twist the night
Lean up, lean back
[D] [E]
[A]
[D] [E] They're twisting [A] the night away
Here's a fella [F#m] in blue jeans, dancing with the old [D] queen
Who's dolled up in her diamond [E] rings, they're twisting the night [A] away
[F#m] Man, you ought to see her go, twisting through the rock and [D] roll
Here you find the young and [E] old, twisting the [F#m] night away
They're twisting, twisting, everybody's feeling great
[D] They're twisting, twisting, [E] they're twisting the [A] night
One more time
Lean up, [F#m] lean back
[D] Lean up, [E] lean back
[A] [F#m]
[Bm] [E]
