Ballin' The Jack Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
Listen [D]an d we'll tell you
[A]how to ball [Abdim]the jack
[C]Fir[D]st you put your two knees
close up tight
You [A]sway them to the [G]left
and you sway them to the right
[C]You step around the floor
kinda nice and light
[E]Then [F]you twist [C]around and round
with all [F]your [A]might
[D]Stretch your loving arms
right out in space.
You do [G]the Eagle Rock
with a style and grace.
Put your [Bb]right foot [Fdim]out
[A]and bring [D]it back.
Now that's what [C]I call
[F]ballin' the jack.
Do you ever feel restless
and nothing to do?
Do you've [Bb]seen all the movies
and been to the zoo?
You've [A]read all the papers
and [D]gone through your mail
You [G]wanna shove [Dm]off,
[G]but there's [C]no [G]place [D]to sail[Ebdim][C]
[G]Now, [C]mis[F]ter, take our advice,
get yourself a nice date
Pick [A]out a gal [G]who is ready by [Bb]eight,
then [F]take her out [A]dancing,
[D]and don't hurry bac[E]k.
[G]Sway [F]around [C]in [D]heaven,
[G]ball in the [C]jack[Gm] .
[C]Fir[D]st you put you[C]r two knees
[D]close [Abdim]up tight.
[G]You sway them [C]to the [G]left
and you sway them to the right.
You [C]step around the floor
kinda nice [F#dim]and light
And [D]then you [F]twist around
and [C]twist around
With [A]all your might
[D]Stretch your loving [Abdim]arms
Right [D]out in space
You [G]do the Eagle [Dm]Rock
[C]With a [A]style [G]and grace
Put [Bb]your right foot [Bbm]on
You [C]bring [Am]it b[D]ack
Now [Dm]that's what [A]I call
[C]ballin' [Dm]the [F]jack[Dm]pot!
