                   Am         G 
Stand up like a soldier baby 
                      C              F 
Yeah, I know you're built like that 
                Am           G 
Gun it like a holster babe

we live where the war is raging 
              C           F 
Chasing our crazy dreams 
                  Am                  G 
Hoping that the bridge won't cave in 
                      F 
Tonight we'll let it all go free

Am                            G 
  Gimme the thing and let me rock in a dance

Gimme the thing and let me rock in a dance 
Am                 G 
  Mash it up and step in a dance 
C                             F 
  Gimme the thing and let me rock rock rock rock
[Chorus]
Am                            G 
  Gimme the thing and let me rock in a dance

Gimme the thing and let me rock in a dance 
Am                 G 
  Mash it up and step in a dance
