F            G
My life's an open book
    F                  G
You read it on the radio
F          G
We got nowhere to hide
    F              G
We got nowhere to go
F            G
But if you still decide
F                 G
That you want to take a ride

Chorus:
C
Meet me at the wrecking ball
Am
Wrecking ball
 F                          G
Wear something pretty and white
     F                  G
And we'll go dancin' tonight
Meet me at the wrecking ball
Wrecking ball
Wear something pretty and white
And we'll go dancin' tonight.

I see your smoky eyes
Right across the bar
I've seen that look before
Shining from star to star
Though I can't take that chance
If you got time for one dance

Chorus

The restless line of cars
Goes stretchin' down the road
But I won't telephone
'Cause you might say hello
What is it makes me feel this way?
What is it makes me want to say

Chorus
