              Am7 
Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk, 
       G              Am7 
I'm a woman's man, no time to talk. 
Music loud and women warm. 
G                       Am7   
I've been kicked around since I was born. 
    D7 
And now it's all right, it's O.K.                
And you may look the other way. 
We can try to understand 
The New York Times' effect on man. 
 
Am7                                               
Whether you're a brother                         
Or whether you're a mother, 
D7 
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.             
Am7 
Feel the city breakin' 
And ev'rybody shakin'                            
D7 
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive. 
Am7 
Ah, ha, ha, ha,                                  
D7 
Stayin' alive. Stayin' alive. 
Am7                                              
Ah, ha, ha, ha, 
             A7sus4 Am7 Em  Intro               
Stayin' alive.                                   
 
          Am7 
Well now, I get low and I get high 
     G                    Am7 
And if I can't get either I really try. 
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes 
      G               Am7    
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose. 
         D7 
You know it's all right, it's O.K. 
I'll live to see another day. 
We can try to understand 
The New York Times' effect on man.
