Play That Funky Music
E
Hey once I was a boogie singer playin' in a rock and roll band
I never had no problems burning down them one night stands
And everything around me got to stop to feelin' so low
And I decided quickly yes I did to disco down and check out the show
E d E d E d E d E
Yeah they was dancin' and singin' and movin' to the groovin'
And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted
G
Play that funky music white boy. Play that funky music right
Bbm
Play that funky music white boy
Em D Bm A7 D E9 (riff: e d b d b g a g a b a g e d e )
Lay down a boogie and play that funky music till you die
I tried to understand this. I thought that they were out of their minds
How could I be so foolish to not see I was the one behind
So I kept on fighting, losing every step of the way
I said I must go back there (I got to go back) and check to see if things still the same
Chorus
Guitar solo x8 measures
Now first it wasn't easy changin' rock and roll and minds
And things were getting shaky I thought I'd have to leave it behind
But now its so much better (it's so much better) I'm funking out in every way
But I'll never lose that feelin' (no I won't) of how I learned my lesson that day
Chorus. ('Til you die, Oh' till you die)
G
They shouted play that funky music (Play that funky music)
Play that funky music (You Gotta keep on playin' funky music)
Bbm
Play that funky music white boy
Em D Bm A7 D E9
Lay down a boogie and play that funky music till you die
