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

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

VERSE 1:
Just a [F#/A#] steel town girl on a [A#m6] Saturday night
Looking [A#m7] for the fight of her [A#mMaj7] life
in the [F#] real time world no one [F#add9] sees her at all
they [G#sus2/F#] all say she's ^[F7sus4] crazy ^[F7]

VERSE 2:
Locking [F#/A#] rhythm to the [A#m6] beat of her heart
Changing [A#m7] movement into [A#mMaj7] light
She had [F#] danced into the [F#add9] danger zone
When the [G#sus2/F#] dancer becomes the ^[F7sus4] dance ^[F7]

PRE-CHORUS 1:
[D#7] It can cut you like a [F7] knife if the fight becomes the [F#] fire
On the wire between [F7] will and what will [F7] be

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

VERSE 3:
On the [F#/A#] ice blue line of in-[A#m6]-sanity
is a [A#m7] place most never [A#mMaj7] see
It's a [F#] hard won place of [F#add9] mystery
[G#sus2/F#] touch it but can't ^[F7sus4] hold it ^[F7]

VERSE 4:
You [F#/A#] work all your life, for that [A#m6] moment in time
It could [A#m7] come or pass you [A#mMaj7] by
it's a [F#] push shove world but there's [F#add9] always a chance
if the [G#sus2/F#] hunger stays the ^[F7sus4] night ^[F7]

PRE-CHORUS:
[D#7] There's a cold kinetic [F7] heat struggling stretching for the [F#] peak
Never stopping with her head [F7] against the [F7] wind

REPEAT CHORUS:

BREAK: [F#] ^[F7][A#m] [F#] ^[F7][A#m]
