INTRO:
[B] [C#] [D#m] [D#m] /
[B] [C#] [D#m] [D#m]
VERSE 1:
Just a
[B/D#] steel town girl on a
[D#m6] Saturday night
Looking
[D#m7] for the fight of her
[D#mMaj7] life
in the
[B] real time world no one
[Badd9] sees her at all
they
[C#sus2/B] all say she's ^
[A#7sus4] crazy ^
[A#7]
VERSE 2:
Locking
[B/D#] rhythm to the
[D#m6] beat of her heart
Changing
[D#m7] movement into
[D#mMaj7] light
She had
[B] danced into the
[Badd9] danger zone
When the
[C#sus2/B] dancer becomes the ^
[A#7sus4] dance ^
[A#7]
PRE-CHORUS 1:
[G#7] It can cut you like a
[A#7] knife if the fight becomes the
[B] fire
On the wire between
[A#7] will and what will
[A#7] be
CHORUS:
She's a
[B] maniac,
[C#] maniac on the
[D#m] floor
[D#m]
And she's
[B] dancing like she's
[C#] never danced be-
[D#m]-fore
[D#m]
She's a
[B] maniac,
[C#] maniac on the
[D#m] floor
[D#m]
And she's
[B] dancing like she's
[C#] never danced be-
[G#9]-fore
[G#9]
VERSE 3:
On the
[B/D#] ice blue line of in-
[D#m6]-sanity
is a
[D#m7] place most never
[D#mMaj7] see
It's a
[B] hard won place of
[Badd9] mystery
[C#sus2/B] touch it but can't ^
[A#7sus4] hold it ^
[A#7]
VERSE 4:
You
[B/D#] work all your life, for that
[D#m6] moment in time
It could
[D#m7] come or pass you
[D#mMaj7] by
it's a
[B] push shove world but there's
[Badd9] always a chance
if the
[C#sus2/B] hunger stays the ^
[A#7sus4] night ^
[A#7]
PRE-CHORUS:
[G#7] There's a cold kinetic
[A#7] heat struggling stretching for the
[B] peak
Never stopping with her head
[A#7] against the
[A#7] wind
REPEAT CHORUS:
BREAK: [B] ^
[A#7][D#m] [B] ^
[A#7][D#m]
REPEAT PRE-CHORUS 1:
REPEAT CHORUS: [multiple times]
