  			E                      Am          C 
Disco dancing with the lights down low 
E                        Am   C 
Beats are pumping on the stereo 
D                                  G 
Neighbours banging on the bathroom wall 
        E 
I gotta crank the bass  
        Am       C 
I gotta get some more  

G                             C 
Waters running in the wrong direction 
                             G 
Got a feeling its a mixed up sign 
                         C 
I can see it in my own reflection 
                             D    G  Em 
Something funny's going on inside my mind 
                            G 
I dunno what its pushing me higher  
                               D 
Its the stactic from the floor below 
    C                              E 
And then it jumps and catches like fire 
Its the sound I, its the sound I 
        C                 E 
Its the sound of the underground 
    C                                E 
The beat of the drum goes round and around  
C        E 
Into the overflow 
          C                     Em 
Where the girls get down to the sound of the radio  
G 
Out to the electric night  
          Em                     Am 
Where the bass line jumps to the backstreet light 
    C                    E 
The beat goes around and round  
        A                                E 
Its the sound of the under, sound of the underground 

E                      Am         C 
Chain reaction running through my veins 
E                        Am      C 
Pumps the bass line up into my brain 
D                           Am  C 
Screws my mind until I lose control 
             E                         Am     C 
And when the builidng rocks I know its got my soul 

G                             C 
Waters running in the wrong direction 
                             G 
Got a feeling its a mixed up sign 
                         C 
I can see it in my own reflection 
                             D    G  Em 
Something funny's going on inside my mind 
                            G 
Dunno what its pushing me higher  
                               D
