Bandstand Boogie

   Eb

[Chorus]
E           A
We're goin' hoppin', we're goin' hoppin' today
                 D                F#m
Where things are poppin' the Philadelphia way
            A                  B
We're gonna drop in on all the music they play
       A
On the bandstand (bandstand)

[Verse 1]
A
We're goin' swingin', we're gonna swing in the crowd
             Bm                    A
And we'll be clingin' and floatin' high as a cloud
                                   B
The phones are ringin', my mom and dad are so proud
       A
I'm on bandstand (bandstand)

[Pre-Chorus]
A                        B                    A
And I'll jump and hey, I may even show 'em my handstand
            D               A
Because I'm on, because I'm on the American bandstand
                             A                        A
When we dance real slow I'll show all the guys in the grandstand
A
What a swinger I am, I am on American bandstand

[Chorus]
                                 E
We're goin' hoppin', we're goin' hoppin' today
                 D
Where things are poppin' the Philadelphia way
            E                   Bm
We're gonna drop in on all the music they play
       A
On the bandstand (bandstand)

[Interlude]

Bring it on, hear us go,

B       C         A    D       A    D        G      D
Hey I'm makin' my mark,   gee, this joint is jumpin'
     G    D      A    B           A        D
They made such a fuss just to see us arrive
         Dm      A      F#m                 E
Hey it's Mr.Dick Clark, what a place you've got here
D     F#m       D       Bm        B
Swell spot, the music's hot here, best in the east
           Bb              A
Give it at least a seventy five
                Eb             D  Bm       A
Now for all you Joe's, it goes by American handstand
                                                Ab    A
Because I'm on, because I'm on the American bandstand
                 Abm       D           Eb          A
As we dance real slow, I'm showin' the guys on the grandstand
                        Bm     A
That I like my girl but I love American bandstand

[Verse 3]
    Bb                          G   Bb
The singers' croonin', he ain't the greatest but gee
          Eb          Cm
My baby's swoonin' in front of all of TV
          Gm   F   D             G
So if you tune in, you'll see my baby and me
       Eb      Bb
On the bandstand (bandstand)

[Chorus]
              Bbm         Bb       Bbm         F
And now we're hoppin' and we'll be hoppin' all day
                 Eb                       Cm
Where things are poppin' the Philadelphia way
                       Bb      Gm         Abm
And you can drop in on all the music they play

On the bandstand (bandstand)

[Otro]
                   Db       Eb        C
And we'll rock and roll and stroll on American
F#    A       Eb
Lindy hop and slop, it's American
