[Verse 1]
N.C. G
Trying so hard to keep up with the Joneses
N.C. G
Running a rat race won by our noses
N.C. G
Always put one foot in front of the other
N.C. G F5 E5
And dance to the beat of the decadent drummer
[Pre-Chorus]
D E
Just buy a brand new pair of Fred Astaire shoes
C C5 B5 A5
Climbing to the top, ne - ver gonna stop

It's the same old song and one two three and dec - a - dance
[Chorus]

N.C. G
It's hard to stop once the music gets started
N.C. G
'til the soles of your feet harden up like your heart did
F5 E5 F5 E5 F5 E5 F5 A#5 G
Stepping in line with the sign of the ti - mer
