THE RHYTHM

CAPO III

Trumpet Solo


Chords and lyrics:

(Intro)
        Am
And for all of the sweet loving that
       Fmaj7/A
I have received

In the sun in the rain
                      G
By the moon by the sea         
There is one time that I'm thinking of
E7
One time where one woman
                    Am
Did knock me off my feet
And my knees were shaking
                     Fmaj7/A
And my jaw was dropping
And my eyes were squinting
                     G
And my smile was growing
And my pants were bulging
                   E7
And my hands were sweating
And my chest was beating So I cry 
       F
excuse me,
                            G
What is the secret to your song?

(Verse 1)
      Am                       G
Cause when you're walking along
F                       E
When you're walking along:
(E)                          
Your legs are a melody my hands
              Am
Would like to play
         
And your hips are a note
                  E
That does take me away
                                   
And your face and your eyes and your hair
         F                   G
And your waist and your smile
                    Am
Drive me to distraction
     G                       F
She turned and she gave the evil eye
    E
'why thankyou' she said
         Am                       G
Then she sigh 'ah there's one thing
F                     E
I think you failed to mention:

'What?' I said then she said
                        Am
'It's the rhythm you forgot'
                               E7
And right then I knew what was what

And she snuck to my lips
               
And she kissed them
    F                      E
she said 'young man  I'll show you some rhythm'

   
(Trumpet Solo) Am E x4

And she'll show you some rhythm

(Verse 2)

          F#m7
And since then ha
B7                                      Dm6
  The rhythm's been running through my veins
                     Amaj7
In my thoughts in my eyes
       C#7       F#m7
In my head it's insane
                       B7 
It's the thing that does drive me
To scream
      Dm6
On the street when I think of some
Amaj7        C#7 
Places it's taken me
F#m7                B7                                    Dm6
I feel horny when I thinking of some of that rhythm in my mind
                       Amaj7      C#7 
What she gave what she gives to me
           F#m7
All of the time
                     B7
Say a little bit of sweet loving in your day
Dm6
All my friends know it keeps the
Amaj7        C#7 
Bad thoughts away
   F#m7                     B7
So sing with your hips my baby
                            Dm6   Amaj7   C#7
When you're dancing to this tune
 F#m7                     B7   
And when this tune is through

We'll sneak to some place
    Dm6       Amaj7  C#7
And continue to:

E
Say sing with your hips my baby
When you're dancing to this tune
And when this tune is through
We'll sneak to some place and
Continue to -
She said I'll show you some rhythm
Am - E - Am - E 

And she'll show you some rhythm
Am - E - Am - E
