Maniac - Michael Sembello
As performed by Dominika
1.
EmEm6
Just a steel town girl on a Saturday night,
Em7Em
looking for the fight of her life.
CCadd9
In the real time world no one sees her at all,
Cadd9A#7sus4A#7
they all say she's crazy.
2.
EmEm6
Locking rhythm to the beat of her heart,
Em7Em
changing movement into light.
CCadd9
She had danced into the danger zone
Cadd9A#7sus4A#7
when the dancer becomes the dance.
Pre1.
A7A#7C
It can cut you like a knife if the gift becomes the fire
A#7
on the wire between will and what will be.
Ref1
CDEm
She's a maniac, maniac on the floor
CDEm
and she's dancing like she's never danced before.

3.
EmEm6
On the ice blue line of insanity
Em7Em
is a place most never see.
CCadd9
It's a hard won place of mystery,
Cadd9A#7sus4A#7
touch it but can't hold it.
4.
EmEm6
You work all your life, for that moment in time,
Em7Em
it could come or pass you by.
CCadd9
It's a push shove world but there's always a chance
Cadd9A#7sus4A#7
if the hunger stays the night.
Pre2.
A7A#7C
There's a cold kinetic heat struggling stretching for the peak
A#7
never stopping with her head against the wind.
Ref2.
CDEm
She's a maniac, maniac at your door
CDEm
and she's dancing like she's never danced before.

She's a maniac, maniac at your door
