Well, when the night falls
              E
Way down in Savannah

Well, you can find
him down on Fourth

Hidden out in

the night
  B  A  E   A E

[Bridge]
A
Ran into his good
time buddies
                    B C#m
Never gonna need no rest
A
Walkin' 'round in
his dancing shoes
                    B C#m
Gonna put em to the test
A
Look out, world
cause here he comes
                   B C#m
Movin' through the night
    A
The kids are looking

 for the good time
 A Bb B C

[Verse 2]
          C#m
There`s a lady
And she`s standing
        E
 in the corner
  B  A  E   A E
            C#m
But she`s a little
 but shy
She needs some coaxing
        E
 on the dance floor
 B  A  E   A E

[Bridge]
    A
But pretty soon
she caught his eye
                B C#m
Now he`s moving in
A
Beauty`s shy,
but in her eyes
She starts his
         B C#m
head to spin
A
He keeps up
 all the dancin'
Starts them both
    B C#m
 to swing
A
Now they`re getting
                 B C
to a good thing
