[G] [Em] [Eb] [D]
Verse 1:

[G] Music is a world with-[Em]in itself,
With a [Eb]language we all under-[D]stand.

[G] With an equal oppor-[Em]tunity,
For all to [Eb]sing, dance,
And clap their [D]ha-[C#7]nds.

Bridge 1:

But just be-[C9]cause a [B9]record [Bb9]has a [A9]groove,
Don't [Bb9]make it [B9]in the [C9]groove.

But you can [C9]tell right a-[B9]way at [Bb9]letter [A9]A,
When the [Bb9]peo-[B9]ple [C9]start [C#9]to [D9]move.

Chorus 1:

[G] They can feel it all [E7]over,
[Cmaj7] They can feel it all [Am7]over [D]people.

Interlude:

(Bass and Horn riff)

Verse 2:

[G] Music knows it is and [Em]always will,
Be one of [Eb]the things,
That life just won't [D]quit.

[G] But here are some of music's [Em]pioneers,
That time will [Eb]not allow us to for-[D]get;[C#7]

Bridge 2:

For there's [C9]Basie, [B9]Miller, [Bb9]Satch-[A9]mo,
And the [Bb9]king of [B9]all Sir [C9]Duke.

And with a [C9]voice like [B9]Ella's [Bb9]ringing [A9]out,
There's no [Bb9]way [B9]the [C9]band [C#9]can [D9]lose.

Chorus 2:

[G] You can feel it all [E7]over,
[Cmaj7] You can feel it all [Am7]over [D]people.

[G] You can feel it all [E7]over,

[Cmaj7] You can feel it all [Am7]over [D]people.

[G] You can feel it all [E7]over,
[Cmaj7] You can feel it all [Am7]over [D]people.

[G] They can feel it all [E7]ov-er,
[Cmaj7] They can feel it all [Am7]over [D]people.

[G] You can feel it all [E7]over,
[Cmaj7] You can feel it all [Am7]over [D]people.

[G] You can feel it all [E7]over,
[Cmaj7] You can feel it all [Am7]over [D]people.

[G] Can't you feel it all [E7]over?
[Cmaj7] Come on let's feel it [Am7]all over [D]people.

[G] You can feel it all [E7]over,
[Cmaj7] You can feel it all [Am7]over [D]people.
