I was looking at tabs for this song and found one good one with chords, however it was
with a capo on the 4th fret. This is a version for anyone looking to play it without a capo.
Feel free to play with power chords or barre chords. Try a bunch of ways and see which
and sounds best for you.
The main chords are C#m/B/E/A Until the bridge where it's G#m/C#m/E/A
I like to play the verses like this
C#m B E A Repeat
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------------------9-9-9------------------------------------------|
D|-11-11-11----9-9-9-9-9------------------7-7-7-7-7--------------------------|
A|----------------------------7-7-7------------------------------------------|
E|--9--9--9----7-7-7-7-7------------------5-5-5-5-5--------------------------|
If your looking for a more basic way you can use this
C#m B
I came to dance, dance, dance, dance,
E A
I hit the floor, cause
C#m B
That's my plans, plans, plans, plans,
E A
I'm wearing all my favorite
C#m B
Brands, brands, brands, brands
E A
Give me space for both my
C#m B
Hands, hands, hands, hands
E A
You, you
Now is the chorus. Here, I just play the basic chords near the top of the fretboard so
not putting up a tab, just the chords.
C#m B E A
Cause it goes on and on and on
C#m B E A
And it goes on and on and on
C#m B E A
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes
Am G
Saying Aaaaaaa-Yooooo
C F
Gotta let go
Am G C F
I wanna celebrate and live my life
C#m B
Saying Aaaaaaa-Yooooo
E A
Baby, let's go
C#m B
'Cause we gon' rock this club
E A
We gon' go all night
C#m B
We gon' light it up
E A
Like it's dynamite
C#m B
Cause I told you once
E A
Now I told you twice
C#m B
We gon' light it up
E A
Like it's dynamite
The second verse is played the same as the first, but I'll put up the chords anyway.
C#m B
I came to move, move, move, move
E A
Get out the way me and
C#m B
My crew, crew, crew, crew
E A
I'm in the club so
C#m B
I'm gonna do, do, do, do
E A
Just drop the phone, came here to
C#m B
Do, do, do, do
E A
Yeah, yeah
Back to the chorus again....

Now we're at the bridge. I'll put up the chords and a tab of the chord shape I use. It's
just single-strum chords until "I just want it all..." where there's a pickup rythm.
