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

INTRO:
[E] [F#] [G#m] [G#m] / [E] [F#] [G#m] [G#m]

VERSE 1:
Just a [E/G#] steel town girl on a [G#m6] Saturday night
Looking [G#m7] for the fight of her [G#mMaj7] life
in the [E] real time world no one [Eadd9] sees her at all
they [F#sus2/E] all say she's ^[D#7sus4] crazy ^[D#7]

VERSE 2:
Locking [E/G#] rhythm to the [G#m6] beat of her heart
Changing [G#m7] movement into [G#mMaj7] light
She had [E] danced into the [Eadd9] danger zone
When the [F#sus2/E] dancer becomes the ^[D#7sus4] dance ^[D#7]

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

CHORUS:
She's a [E] maniac, [F#] maniac on the [G#m] floor [G#m]
And she's [E] dancing like she's [F#] never danced be-[G#m]-fore [G#m]
She's a [E] maniac, [F#] maniac on the [G#m] floor [G#m]
And she's [E] dancing like she's [F#] never danced be-[C#9]-fore [C#9]

VERSE 3:
On the [E/G#] ice blue line of in-[G#m6]-sanity
is a [G#m7] place most never [G#mMaj7] see
It's a [E] hard won place of [Eadd9] mystery
[F#sus2/E] touch it but can't ^[D#7sus4] hold it ^[D#7]

VERSE 4:
You [E/G#] work all your life, for that [G#m6] moment in time
It could [G#m7] come or pass you [G#mMaj7] by
it's a [E] push shove world but there's [Eadd9] always a chance
if the [F#sus2/E] hunger stays the ^[D#7sus4] night ^[D#7]

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

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK: [E] ^[D#7][G#m] [E] ^[D#7][G#m]
