[Verse 1]

Hey, you

In the corner shaking in those boots

You got one, one for two

E D

You got the shaking right, but the fear won't do

E A

We always say that we have unspeakable joy

So let our feet do all the talking when our words fall short

[Chorus]

We've got reason to get up

Reason to get down

He done traded our sin for joy

And now, that joy wants out

Happy dance (oh!)

A E G C D

Happy dance (oh!)

[Verse 2]

Hey, yeah you

In the back of the room with those concrete shoes

It's okay, to cut loose

Oh, it ain't about how you move, but what moves you

We're so consumed with what we think we're supposed to be

That we stop living like we know that we're free

[Chorus]

We've got reason to get up

Reason to get down

He done traded our sin for joy

And now, that joy wants out

Happy dance (oh!)

A E G C D

Happy dance (oh!)

[Bridge]

Let me see, those hands

D E A

If the good Lord saved ya

Get up, get down

'Cause He done changed ya

A D

Let me see, those hands

If the good Lord saved ya

Get up, get down

'Cause He done changed ya!

[Chorus]

We've got reason to get up

Reason to get down

He done traded our sin for joy

And now, that joy wants out

Happy dance (oh!)

A E G C D

Happy dance (oh!)
