      [Verse 1]
   Em      D
My name is Mary
         C
I'm from Greenville, Mississippi
Em              C
This is where I live
        C
in this old folks' dormitory
Em            G                   C
Every Sunday night Sarah comes to see us
Em                      G
   She plays that old upright
                 C
but Sarah always seems to leave us
Em       D               Em     D   C
When she plays something comes over me
               D            Em        C
'cause from my head all the way to my feet


[Chorus]
        G
I wanna dance
         Dm                                C
I wanna snap my fingers all night long and dance
C                                        G  D  Em D C                  
I wanna move around the room just like a woman in a trance
    D
All night
        G
I wanna dance
        Dm                                C
I wanna wrap my arms around your neck and dance
C                                       G  D    Em D  C
I wanna listen to the music that's been ringin' in my ears
C                                           G
'Cause one day I'm gonna dance right out of here


[Verse 2]
      Em                C
I had three girls and a boy
G        C                D
but now one's gone off to heaven
Em                  G
She's with her papa now
                  C             D
'cause he left for lack of penicillin
Em                   G                 C
And the older that I get I figure everyone is dyin'
Em                       G
They're all dyin' for a change
               C              D
And I know I'm dyin' for some action
Em        D             Em            C
Days like these, Sunday feels so far away
C        D                        G 
So until then I'm gonna sit right here,
              C
And here I'll stay


[Chorus]
        G
I wanna dance
         Dm                                C
I wanna snap my fingers all night long and dance
C                                        G  D  Em D C                  
I wanna move around the room just like a woman in a trance
    D
All night
        G
I wanna dance
        Dm                                C
I wanna wrap my arms around your neck and dance
C                                       G  D    Em D  C
I wanna listen to the music that's been ringin' in my ears
C          D                                 G
'Cause one day I'm gonna dance right out of here

G D Em D C G Am D
                 right outta here
G D Em D C G Am

Am        D                 Em                   C
I'd marry you, if you could dance, that's what I said
                 D                 Em             C
'Cause where I'm goin, there'll be dancing, every day


[Chorus]
G
I wanna dance
         Dm                                C
I wanna snap my fingers all night long and dance
C                                        G  D  Em D C                  
I wanna move around the room just like a woman in a trance
    D
All night
        G
I wanna dance
        Dm                                C
I wanna wrap my arms around your neck and dance
C                                       G  D    Em D  C
I wanna listen to the music that's been ringin' in my ears
C          D                                 G
'Cause one day I'm gonna dance right out of here
