Lick x4

For the verse, funk rhythm E9//F#9F9 


Yeah, once I was a funky singer, playing in a rock and roll band
I never had no problems, yeah, running down the one night stands
Then everything around me, yeah, go to start to feeling so low
   
                                                                        E  D E
And I decided quickly, yes I did, to disco down and check out the show
Ane they were ...

CHORUS

E9
Dancing and singing and movin to the grooving

And just when it hit me somebody turned around and shouted

G9
Play that funky music white boy, play that funky music right

                      Bb7
Play that funky music white boy

Lick 2
Lay down the boogie and play that funky music ‘till you die

“Till you die, oh 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 still I kept on fighting, well losing every step of the way
I said I must go back there, got to go back, and check to see 
If things still the same ...

Gonna play some of that electrified funky music, yeah
(Second ending:  ‘Till you die)

SOLO

Now first it wasn’t easy, changing rock and rolling minds
And things were getting shaky, I thought I’d have to leave it behind
But now it’s so much better, I’m funking out in every way
But I’ll never loose that feeling, of how I learned my lesson that day
When they were ....


CHORUS

They shouted play that funky music, play that funky music
Play that funky music, got to keep on playing funking music
Play that funky music, etc.
