Here is my version of "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" by Whitney Houston.
It is more of an intermediate version because of the slash chords which
change quickly - however these can be simplified.
Intro
F# x4
[F#] [D#m] [B] [G#m] [F#/A#] [B] [C#] [F#]
Verse 1
[C#] [D#m]
Clocks strikes upon the hour, and the sun begins to fade,
[C#] [D#m]
still enough time to figure out how to chase my blues away.
[G#m] [C#] [F#/A#] [B]
I've done alright up 'til now, it's the light of day that shows me how,
[G#m] [F#/A#] [C#/D#] [B] [F#/A#] [B] [C#]
and when the night falls, loneliness calls.
Chorus
[F#]
Oh! I wanna dance with somebody,
I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
[D#m]
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,
[B] [C#]
with somebody who loves me.
[F#]
Oh! I wanna dance with somebody,
I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
[D#m]
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,
[B] [G#m] [F#/A#] [B] [C#] [F#]
with somebody who loves me.
Verse 2
[C#] [D#m]
I've been in love and lost my senses, spinning through the town,
[C#] [D#m]
soon or later the fever ends, and I wind up feeling down.
[G#m] [C#] [F#/A#] [B]
I need a man who'll take a chance, on a love that burns hot enough to last.
[G#m] [F#/A#] [C#/D#] [B] [F#/A#] [B] [C#]
So when the night falls, my lonely heart calls.
Chorus
[F#]
Oh! I wanna dance with somebody,
I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
[D#m]
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,
[B] [C#]
with somebody who loves me.
[F#]
Oh! I wanna dance with somebody,
I wanna feel the heat with somebody.
[D#m]
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody,
[B] [G#m] [F#/A#] [B] [C#] [D#m]
with somebody who loves me.
Bridge
[D#m] [C#] [G#m] [A#m]
Somebody who , somebody who, somebody to love me,
[D#m] [C#]
somebody who , somebody who, to hold me in his arms, oh!
[G#m] [C#] [F#/A#] [B]
I need a man who'll take a chance, on a love that burns hot enough to last.
[G#m] [F#/A#] [C#/D#] [B] [F#/A#] [B] [C#]
So when the night falls, my lonely heart calls.
