 Barry Manilow - Bandstand Boogie
==================================
No capo

[Intro]
D#dim7 E


[Verse]
            A6
We're goin' hoppin', we're goin' hoppin' today
                 D9
Where things are poppin' the Philadelphia way
            D/E
We're gonna drop in on all the music they play
       B7 Bbmaj7  A
On the bandstand (bandstand)

            A6
We're goin' swingin', we're gonna swing in the crowd
             D9
And we'll be clingin' and floatin' high as a cloud
               D/E
The phones are ringin', my mom and dad are so proud
       B7 Bbmaj7  A
I'm on bandstand (bandstand)


[Chorus]
         A        A/C#   D        B7/D#       A/E B7/D#  A
And I'll jump and hey, I may even show 'em my handstand
        D9      C#7+5   C13    B7  Bbmaj7   A   G#    A
Because I'm on, because I'm on the American bandstand
        A          A/C#      D           B7/D#        A/E  B7/D# A
When we dance real slow I'll show all the guys in the grandstand
       D9     C#7+5  C13  B7 Bbmaj7   A
What a swinger I am, I am on American bandstand


[Verse]
            A6
We're goin' hoppin', we're goin' hoppin' today
                 D9
Where things are poppin' the Philadelphia way
            D/E
We're gonna drop in on all the music they play
       B7 Bbmaj7  A
On the bandstand, bandstand


[Interlude]
B7/A
Bandstand, bandstand, bandstand

What do you know, here on the show
                       D/E N.C.
Ready to go, what a pro


[Bridge]
                   A6              D9
Hey! I'm makin' my mark, gee, this joint is jumpin'
          D9  C#7+5 C13  B7      Bbmaj7    A
They made such a    fuss just to see us arrive
                  A6
Hey it's Mr. Dick Clark, what a place you've got here
D9                                B7
Swell spot, the music's hot here, best in the east
Bbmaj7                      A
Give it at least a seventy five


[Chorus]
        A       A/C#      D        B7/D#   A/E  B7/D# A
Now for all you Joe's, it goes by American handstand
        D9      C#7+5   C13    B7  Bbmaj7   A   G#   A
Because I'm on, because I'm on the American bandstand
      A          A/C#      D           B7/D#       A/E  B7/D# A
As we dance real slow, I'm showin' the guys on the grandstand
       D9      C#7+5   C13 B7  Bbmaj7   A
That I like my girl but I love American bandstand


[Interlude]
N.C.


[Verse]
             Bb6
The singers' croonin', he ain't the greatest but gee
          Eb9
My baby's swoonin' in front of all of TV
          Eb/F
So if you tune in, you'll see my baby and me
       C Bmaj7    Bb
On the bandstand (bandstand)

              Bb6
And now we're hoppin' and we'll be hoppin' all day
                 Eb9
Where things are poppin' the Philadelphia way
            Eb/F
And you can drop in on all the music they play
       C Bmaj7    Bb
On the bandstand (bandstand)


[Outro]
          N.C.
And we'll rock and roll and stroll on American

Lindy hop and slop, it's American
Eb       Bbaug/D Bbm/Db   C7      Bmaj7
Tune in, I'm on, turn on, I'm in, I'm on!
  Bb6 Eb9 Eb/F
Today
C7 Bmaj7 Bb6
         Bandstand
