Michael Sembello, Maniac (1983)
Key: :[Bm] (w: Dennis Matkosky, Michael Sembello) (BPM: 160 / 00-A) (Original Key: D#m)

INTRO:
[G] [A] [Bm] [Bm] / [G] [A] [Bm] [Bm]

VERSE 1:
Just a [G/B] steel town girl on a [Bm6] Saturday night
Looking [Bm7] for the fight of her [BmMaj7] life
in the [G] real time world no one [Gadd9] sees her at all
they [Asus2/G] all say she's ^[F#7sus4] crazy ^[F#7]

VERSE 2:
Locking [G/B] rhythm to the [Bm6] beat of her heart
Changing [Bm7] movement into [BmMaj7] light
She had [G] danced into the [Gadd9] danger zone
When the [Asus2/G] dancer becomes the ^[F#7sus4] dance ^[F#7]

PRE-CHORUS 1:
[E7] It can cut you like a [F#7] knife if the fight becomes the [G] fire
On the wire between [F#7] will and what will [F#7] be

CHORUS:
She's a [G] maniac, [A] maniac on the [Bm] floor [Bm]
And she's [G] dancing like she's [A] never danced be-[Bm]-fore [Bm]
She's a [G] maniac, [A] maniac on the [Bm] floor [Bm]
And she's [G] dancing like she's [A] never danced be-[E9]-fore [E9]

VERSE 3:
On the [G/B] ice blue line of in-[Bm6]-sanity
is a [Bm7] place most never [BmMaj7] see
It's a [G] hard won place of [Gadd9] mystery
[Asus2/G] touch it but can't ^[F#7sus4] hold it ^[F#7]

VERSE 4:
You [G/B] work all your life, for that [Bm6] moment in time
It could [Bm7] come or pass you [BmMaj7] by
it's a [G] push shove world but there's [Gadd9] always a chance
if the [Asus2/G] hunger stays the ^[F#7sus4] night ^[F#7]

PRE-CHORUS:
[E7] There's a cold kinetic [F#7] heat struggling stretching for the [G] peak
Never stopping with her head [F#7] against the [F#7] wind

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK: [G] ^[F#7][Bm] [G] ^[F#7][Bm]

REPEAT PRE-CHORUS 1:

REPEAT CHORUS: [multiple times]
