The spotlight's hitting something that's been
G#dim
known to change the weather
Am7                    D7                     Em7
We'll kill the fatted calf tonight so stick around

Ooh but they're so spaced out, Bennie and the Jets

Oh but they're weird and they're wonderful
    Am7
Oh Bennie she's really keen

Oh Oh Bennie and the Jets

Hey kids, plug into the faithless
Maybe they're blinded, but Bennie makes them ageless
We shall survive, let us take ourselves along
Where we fight our parents out in the streets
To find who's right and who's wrong

Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet?
Ooh, but they're so spaced out
Bennie and the Jets
Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh, Bennie, she's really keen

Chorus:
She's got electric boots
A mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine, oh
Bennie and the Jets

Oh, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet?
Oh, but they're so spaced out
Bennie and the Jets
Oh, but they're weird and they're wonderful
Oh, Bennie, she's really keen

Chorus:
She's got electric boots, a mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine
Bennie and the Jets

Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie,
Bennie, Bennie and the Jets, the Jets, the Jets
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie,
Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie, Bennie and the Jets
