See that girl, watch that scene

  A                              D
Friday night and the lights are low,
 A                            F#m
Looking out for the place to go
  E                        A
Where they play the right music
 E               A
Getting in the swing,
                E    F#m       E F#m
You come in to look for a king.

A                      D
Anybody could be that guy,
 A                              F#m
Night is young and the music's high.
 E                  A
With a bit of rock music,
E              A
Everything is fine,
               E    F#m        E F#m
You're in the mood for a dance.

Chorus:
              Bm          E
And when you get the chance,
             A
You are the dancing queen,
 D                     A     D
Young and sweet, only seventeen.
 A              D
Dancing queen, feel the beat
          A         D A
From the tambourine.

 E              C#
You can dance, you can jive
 F#m                     B
Having the time of your life,
 D              Bm
See that girl, watch that scene
             A         D  A  D  A  D
Diggin' the dancing queen.

 A                            D
You're a teaser, you turn 'em on,
 A                                 F#m
Leave 'em burning and then you're gone,
 E                A
Looking out for another,
E            A
Anyone will do,
               E    F#m         E F#m
You're in the mood for a dance.

Chorus:
              Bm          E
And when you get the chance,
             A
You are the dancing queen,
 D                     A     D
Young and sweet, only seventeen.
 A              D
Dancing queen, feel the beat
          A         D A
From the tambourine.

 E              C#
You can dance, you can jive
