Verse 1:

B G#m

Music is a world within itself

G9 F#9

With a language we all understand

B G#m

With an equal opportunity

G9 F#9 F9

For all to sing, dance and clap their hands

E9 D#9 D9 C#9

But just because a record has a groove

D9 D#9 E9

Don't make it in the groove

E9 D#9 D9 C#9

But you can tell right away at letter A

D9 D#9 E9 F9 F#9

When the people start to move

Chorus 1:

B Fm7

They can feel it all over

E /D# C#m F#

They can feel it all over, people

B Fm7

They can feel it all over

E /D# C#m F#

They can feel it all over, people

Verse 2:

Music knows it is and always will

Be one of the things that life just won't quit

But here are some of music's pioneers

That time will not allow us to forget, now

For there's Basie, Miller, Satchmo

And the king of all, Sir Duke

And with a voice like Ella's ringing out

There's no way the band can lose

[repeat chorus 1, 2X]

[repeat instrumental break]

[repeat chorus 1]

Chorus 2:

You can feel it all over

You can feel it all over, people

You can feel it all over

I can feel it all over, all over now people

Chorus 3:

Can't you feel it all over

Come on let's feel it all over, people

You can feel it all over

Everybody, all over, people

[repeat instrumental break; end cold on final F#]
