Key: :[E] (w: Marvin Gaye, Ivy Hunter, William Stevenson)

VERSE 1:
[E7] Callin' out around the world, are you ready for a brand new beat?
Summer's here, and the time is right, for dancin' in the street
We're dancin' in Chicago, down in New Orleans, in New York City

CHORUS:
All we need is [A] music
Sweet music, there'll be music everywhere
There'll be [E7] swingin' swayin'
And records playin, dancin' in the street, ooh

BRIDGE:
[G#7] It doesn't matter what you wear
Just as [C#m] long as you are there
So come on [F#7] every guy, grab a girl
[B7sus4] Everywhere, a-[B7]-round the world

BREAK:
There'll be [E7] dancin'; They're dancin' in the street

VERSE 2:
This is an [E7] invitation, across the nation, a chance for folks to meet
There'll be laughin' singin', and music swingin', dancin' in the street
Philadelphia P.A., Baltimore and D.C. now, can't forget the motor city

REPEAT CHORUS:

REPEAT BRIDGE:

REPEAT BREAK:

VERSE 3:
Way down in [E7] L.A., every day, they're dancin' in the street
Lets form a big strong line, and get in time, we're dancin' in the street
Across the ocean blue, me and you, we're dancin n the street
