Verse 1
[B] [G#m]
Music is a world with-in itself,
[G] [F#]
With a language we all under-stand.
[B] [G#m]
With an equal oppor-tunity,
[G] [F#] [F7]
For all to sing, dance, and clap their ha-nds.
Bridge 1
[E9] [D#9] [D9] [C#9]
But just be-cause a record has a groove,
[D9] [D#9] [E9]
Don't make it in the groove.
[E9] [D#9] [D9] [C#9]
But you can tell right a-way at letter A,
[D9] [D#9] [E9] [F9] [F#9] [F#7]
When the peo-ple start to move.
Chorus 1
[B] [Fm7-5] [Emaj7] [C#m9] [E/F#]
They can feel it all over, they can feel it all over people.
[B] [Fm7-5] [Emaj7] [C#m9] [E/F#]
They can feel it all over, they can feel it all over people.

Verse 2
[B] [G#m]
Music knows it is and always will,
[G] [F#]
Be one of the things that life just won't quit.
[B] [G#m]
But here are some of music's pioneers,
[G] [F#] [F7]
That time will not allow us to for-get;
Bridge 2
[E9] [D#9] [D9] [C#9]
For there's Basie, Miller, Satch-mo,
[D9] [D#9] [E9]
And the King of all, Sir Duke.
[E9] [D#9] [D9] [C#9]
And with a voice like Ella's ringing out,
[D9] [D#9] [E9] [F9] [F#9] [F#7]
There's no way the band can lose.
Chorus 2
[B] [Fm7-5] [Emaj7] [C#m9] [E/F#]
You can feel it all over, you can feel it all over people.
[B] [Fm7-5] [Emaj7] [C#m9] [E/F#]
You can feel it all over, you can feel it all over people.
[B] [Fm7-5] [Emaj7] [C#m9] [E/F#]
You can feel it all over, you can feel it all over people.
[B] [Fm7-5] [Emaj7] [C#m9] [E/F#]
You can feel it all over, you can feel it all over people.
