Lionel Richie Dancing on the Ceiling Lyrics

Keyboard / Synth riff - Just listen for the timing and use this pattern.
Use picking hand to act as a capo on the 10th fret and hammer-on / pull-off the riff
Guitar - Just strum C
Then Keyboard lead comes in (guitar chords are the same
Add a lot of cheesy 80's chorus effect.
What is happening here
PM . . . . . . . . . . .
Something's going on that's not quite clear
PM . . . . . . . . . . . .
Somebody turn on the light We're gonna have a party, It's starting tonight
PM . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
horus
(synth)
D C G F (Guitar rhythm is these chords, palm muted)
Harmony
The room is hot and that's good
PM . . . . . . . . . . .
Some of my friends came by from the neighborhood
PM . . . . . . . . . . . .
The people startin' a climb the walls Ooh it looks like everybody is having a ball
PM . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
horus
D C G F (Guitar rhythm is these chords, palm muted)
Harmony
uitar solo
ridge
Everybody start to lose control
When the music is right
If you see somebody hangin' around
Don't get uptight
The only thing we want to do tonight
Is go 'round and 'round
And turn upside down
Dm F G A (Can use the lower chords too for rhythm)
Come on! Let's get down!
Intro riff
(during the drum break)
So come on! Let's get loose
PM . . . . . . . . . . .
Don't hold back 'Cause ain't no use
PM . . . . . . . . . . . .
Hard to keep your feet on the ground 'Cause when we like to party. We only want to get down
PM . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
horus
(2 steps higher)
E D A G (Guitar rhythm is these chords, palm muted)
Harmony
(Based around G and A chord)
