Am7          Bm7                   Em        D  Em
They say it takes a lot to keep a love alive
Am7       Bm7                         Cmaj7
In every heart there pumps a different beat
Am7       A#dim                 Bm7       A  
But if we shift the rhythm into overdrive ,
C7                                B7
Well, we could generate a lot of heat

           D          D
On fifty second street

On fifty second street

Before they know the second bar was played

We're gonna slip it to 'em short and sweet, on
