Wake me up before you go-go
Wham!
[Intro]
C (palm mute)
Jitterbug [4X]
[Verse 1]
            C
You put the boom-boom into my heart
            Dm                      C
You send my soul sky high when your lovin' starts
C
Jitterbug into my brain
       Dm                     C
Goes a bang-bang-bang 'til my feet do the same
    Dm
But something's bugging you
Em
Something ain't right
   F                        Em
My best friend told me what you did last night
Dm               Em
Left me sleepin' in my bed
F                     G
I was dreaming, but I should have been with you instead.
[Chorus]
        C
N.C.    
Wake me up before you go-go 
                Dm                C

        C
Wake me up before you go-go
                 Dm                        C
I don't want to miss it when you hit that high
        C
Wake me up before you go-go
                Dm                C
'Cause I'm not plannin' on going solo
        C
Wake me up before you go-go

             C
You take the grey skies out of my way
             Dm                      C
You make the sun shine brighter than Doris Day
         C
Turned a bright spark into a flame
   Dm                      C
My beats per minute never been the same
       Dm              Em
'Cause you're my lady, I'm your fool
   F                   Em
It makes me crazy when you act so cruel
Dm             Em
Come on, baby, let's not fight

We'll go dancing, everything will be all right
